Remove the cover (see "Removing the cover - small desktop model" on page 26). 2. Use a tool, such as a screwdriver, to remove the two metal knockouts. 3. Insert the Rope Clip through the rear panel; then attach and tighten the nuts with an appropriately sized or adjustable wrench. 4. Replace the computer cover.
