Safety Precautions

Before getting started, please read the following important safety precautions.

1. The eBOX700-891-FL does not come with an operating system which must be loaded
first before installation of any software into the computer.

2. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing any internal
components. Use a wrist grounding strap and place all electronic components in any
static-shielded devices. Most electronic components are sensitive to static electrical
charge.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the eBOX700-891-FL prior to making any installation.
Be sure both the system and all external devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of
power could ruin sensitive components. Make sure the eBOX700-891-FL is properly
grounded.

4. Make sure the voltage of the power source is correct before connecting it to any power
outlet.

5. Turn Off system power before cleaning. Clean the system using a cloth only. Do not
spray any liquid cleaner directly onto the screen.

6. Do not leave equipment in an uncontrolled environment where the storage temperature
is below -40℃ or above 80℃ as it may damage the equipment.

7. Do not open the system’s back cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must,
only a trained technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are
sensitive to static electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge,
observe the following precautions:

 Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the

system unit chassis for a few seconds. This will help discharge any static electricity on
human body.

 When handling boards and components, wear a wrist grounding strap available from

most electronic component stores.

General Cleaning Tips

Please keep the following precautions in mind while understanding the details fully before and
during any cleaning of the computer and any components within.

A piece of dry cloth is ideal to clean the device.

1. Be cautious of any tiny removable components when using a vacuum cleaner to absorb
dirt on the floor.

2. Turn the system off before clean up the computer or any components within.

3. Avoid dropping any components inside the computer or getting circuit board damp or wet.

4. For cleaning, be cautious of all kinds of cleaning solvents or chemicals which may cause
allergy to certain individuals.

5. Keep foods, drinks or cigarettes away from the computer.

Cleaning Tools:

Although many companies have created products to help improve the process of cleaning
computer and peripherals, users can also use house hold items accordingly for cleaning.
Listed below are items available for cleaning computer or computer peripherals.

Pay special attention to components requiring designated products for cleaning as
mentioned below.

 Cloth: A piece of cloth is the best tool to use when rubbing up a component. Although

paper towels or tissues can be used on most hardware as well, it is recommended to use
a piece of cloth.

 Water or rubbing alcohol: A piece of cloth may be somewhat moistened with water or

rubbing alcohol before being rubbed on the computer. Unknown solvents may be harmful
to plastic parts.

 Absorb dust, dirt, hair, cigarette and other particles outside of a computer can be one of

the best methods of cleaning a computer. Over time these items may restrict the airflow
in a computer and cause circuitry to corrode.

 Cotton swabs: Cotton swaps moistened with rubbing alcohol or water are applicable to

reach areas in keyboard, mouse and other areas.

 Foam swabs: If possible, it is better to use lint free swabs such as foam swabs.

.

【Note】: It is strongly recommended that customer should shut down the system before

start to clean any single components.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Close all application programs;

2. Close operating software;

3. Turn off power switch;

4. Remove all devices;

5. Pull out power cable.

SECTION 2

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

The eBOX700-891-FL is convenient for various hardware configurations, such as CPU,
DRAM, HDD (Hard Disk Drive), SSD (Solid State Drive), PCIe x4 expansion slot and PCI
Express Mini card modules. Section 2 contains guidelines for hardware installation.

2.1 Installation of CPU

Step 1 Turn off the system.
Step 2 Loosen all screws to remove top cover.

Step 3 Remove the warning label and disengage load lever.

 Disengage load lever by releasin
 Rotate load lever to open position at approximately 135°.
 Rotate load plate to open position at approximately 150°.

Note

Apply pressure to corner with right-hand thumb when opening or
closing load lever - otherwise lever will bounce back (as a mouse trap)
causing bent contacts.

Step 4 CPU installation steps:

 Lift processor package from shipping media by grasping the substrate edges.

 Scan the processor package gold pads for any presence of foreign material.
 Locate connection 1 indicator on the processor which aligns with connection 1 indicator

chamfer on the socket, and notice processor keying features that line up with posts along
socket walls.

 Grasp the processor with thumb and index finger along the top and bottom edges.

The socket will have cutouts for your fingers to fit into.

 Carefully place the processor into the socket body vertically.

Caution

Never touch fragile socket contacts to avoid damage and do not touch processor
sensitive contacts at any time during installation.

Step 5 Align pins of the CPU with pin holes of the socket. Be careful of the

CPU’s orientation that user’ s need to align the arrow mark on the CPU
with the arrow key on the socket.

Step 6 Paste the thermal pad on top of the processor with caution, and then

remove protection film.

Step 7 Put the top cover and fasten four screws back onto the system.
