7-1-5. Replacing Optical Block Assembly
m
. The optical block assembly requires periodic replacement. Refer to “6-1. Periodic Check/Replacement
Parts List” for details.
. To prevent the possibility of damage to the optical block assembly in the drive by static electricity
charged in a human body or clothes, be sure to establish a ground before cleaning the drive assembly.
(Refer to Section 1-12-1.)
. The spindle motor and the actuator around the objective lens have intense magnetic circuits. Keep
magnetic substance away from these parts. If the magnetic force makes a metallic material such as a
screwdriver, reflection block and so on hit the actuator, the objective lens will be damaged. If the
magnetic substance is moved close to these parts, their characteristics may be changed.
. Life of flexible card wire and flexible board will be significantly shortened if they are folded. Flexible
board is easily cut. Be very careful not to fold them.
