Step 4
Prepare the Fan Holder
- Note the air direction on the fan. The arrow should be pointing up.
- The wires need to be on the top of the fan and not go through the case on the side.
- Insert the fan all the way into the fan holder
- Only press on the four corners of the fan. Do not push in the of the fan.
- The fan should fit tightly in the fan holder. If the fan moves when shaken, Try a different fan and fan holder combination.
