2.  Remove the three processor fans:
    
   
   1.  Pull the fastener -1- in the top center of the fan housing -2-.
       This places the fastener in the unlocked position.
   2.  Pivot the fan downward and remove it from the server.

    Fully extend the latches.
4.  Pull the processor housing assembly partially out of the server, approximately 203.2 mm (8 in.).

     -Attention- To avoid injury, do not place your fingers  immediately behind the latches at the top of the processor housing assembly.
