Unfasten the heatsink

Use a Torx T5 driver to unfasten the four 3.8 mm screws securing the tension brackets.
As you remove each screw, hold down the tension bracket with a finger to prevent the screw from ejecting.
During reassembly, install each screw only a few turns to ensure the heatsink aligns properly. Once all four screws are threaded in, finish tightening them.
