1. Route the Apogee™ Drive Outlet Tube to
the Radiator Inlet Fitting leaving sufficient
slack in the tube to prevent kinks, and then cut
it.
2. Pull the coils back about 1 inch to clear
enough space for the upcoming clamps, and
then push the tube onto the fitting.
3/ FILLING-UP AND TESTING THE SYSTEM
In order to fill-up the liquid cooling system with coolant and test it, you will need to be able to run
the pump. This necessitates that you start-up the power supply while it is not being connected to
the motherboard.
It is possible to turn the PSU on and off with its power switch by using a simple paper clip to
connect pin 14 (PS-ON – GREEN) to any BLACK wire (ground) on the 20 pin ATX connector as
shown hereafter. However, because of the possibility of user error, which could result in short
circuits, damage to the equipment and/or personal injury, we recommend using a power-supply
tester instead. A wide variety of these common and inexpensive devices is available on the Internet
(Google key word: "PSU tester"), and among Swiftech resellers.

Place the system on your bench table, with the
radiator positioned higher than the pump and
pour coolant into the radiator fill-port until full.
Be careful not to overflow!

3. Adjust the second tube to the radiator, cut it to
length then push the tube onto the fitting.
4. You can now remove the Liquid cooling system
from the case to complete the next step. TIP:
Now, install and fasten the clamps to the radiator
fittings while the liquid cooling system is on your
bench table, it will be more convenient!
Now connect the 4-pin Molex connector of the
Apogee™ Drive to your power supply, and
switch-on the PSU. Note that the pump has a 3
seconds delay.
As the device is energized, you should hear the
noise of liquid and air rapidly rushing thru the
pump; immediately after that, the pump noise
level will noticeably decrease and turn to a
gentle hum indicating that the fluid is circulating
normally.
Top-off the radiator with coolant, and allow the
system to run for 30 minutes to an hour on your
bench while periodically inspecting it for leaks.
Control the level one last time, and top-off with
coolant as necessary. Then close the fill-cap
firmly to assure a good seal.
Your system is now ready for use.
