Mac Mini A1176 Repair Manual Mac Mini Model A1176 Repair. 1.5 Core Mac Mini (late 2006) Model A1176. My goal is to make my mini into a 802.11AC access point (AP) and a NAS. Hi, As the fan of my old Mac Mini (Core 2 Duo, 1.83GHz, A1176) was annoyingly loud, I transplanted the mainboard into a new case and connected a 120mm. The saw was purchased new by my great grandfather, it's a Mini Mac 6. I need manuals for it, the oiler doesn't seem to be working right and it leaks the oil out on the shop floor, it doesnt want to idle, and the on/off switch is out of whack. It's in good shape otherwise, still has the sticker on it (Did you read your owners manual?).
