TP 710T - FRU Removals and Replacements

Applicable to: World-Wide

FRU Removals and Replacements:
Follow the numerical sequence in the FRU removal sequence list and in the exploded view to remove or disconnect parts in the correct order. The letters in parentheses in the list indicate screw types. See the - 'Screw Size Chart' - to match the letters to the correct screw type and size before replacing each screw.

Safety Notice 8:
Before removing any FRU, power-off the computer, unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, remove the battery pack, then disconnect any interconnecting cables.

Safety Notice 1:
Before the computer is powered-on after FRU replacement, make sure all screws, springs, or other small parts are in place and are not left loose inside the computer. Verify this by shaking the computer and listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical shorts.
