3, Use appropriate tool to remove CPU retaining screws
4, Lift CPU straight out of system
5, Install Replacement CPU in the appropriate slot
6, Alternately tighten retainer screws tightening them to achieve uniform seating of CPU module
7, Continue tightening until torque indicator reaches 5 +- 0.5 inch pounds.

"NOTE" Do not re-tighten screws as a means to check torque value. If torque value is in question, loosen screws and torque down using normal procedure.

8, Replace top cover
9, Restore original system position and cabling
