measure the average read level as in item (e).
(g) Confirm that the read level measured in item (e) is greater than BO\

for the side 0 and the side 1 heads.

i) At the innermost track, turn the groove on the upper side of the
head pad by 30° steps, approx. with a common screwdriver (see

operations in item (d).
Be sure to take apart the common screwdriver from the head pad
during write or read operation.
Note: Be careful not to push the head pad strongly with the common
screwdriver. Also do not touch the pad surface to which a
disk will be in contact.
ii) After turning the pad position around 360°, set the position again
to the position where the highest read level was obtained. Then
execute items (d) through (g) at the innermost track.
iii) Continue the operation until the items (g) and (i) are sufficiently
satisfied. Following causes are assumed for the insufficient
result in item (g) or (i) after fine adjustment of the pad
