Fastener Torque Sequences
The following illustrates initial and final tightening sequences for components 
that are fastened to a heat sink by using two, four, and six screws. Initial torque is 
1/3 (33%) of final torque, except six-point mountings, which require 0.7 N
•m
(6 lb
•in) initial torque. The numeric illustration labels are for your assistance. 
Drive components do not contain these labels.

Figure 3 - Four-point Mounting
ATTENTION: When mounting components to a drive heat sink, component 
fastener torque sequences and tolerances are crucial to component-to-heat sink 
heat dissipation.
Components can be damaged if initial tightening procedure is not performed to 
specification.
