A retainer device (30) for securing a CPU (50) to a socket (10) includes a base (32), a clip (36) pivotably attached to a rear of the base, and a crank (34) pivotably attached to a front of the base. The clip has a frame (362), and a pair of supporting flanges (368) and a pair of pressing tabs (369) depending from the frame. A hook (366) depends from a front of the clip. The crank has an offset pressing lever (344) and an operation rod (346). When the operation rod is rotated down toward the socket, the pressing lever drives the hook downwardly. The supporting flanges abut against the base, and the pressing tabs press the CPU. When a heat sink (20) is attached to the CPU, it slightly depresses the CPU, and the CPU is moved downwardly away from contact with the pressing tabs.
