7. 15. 1 Head-Arm Assembly Adjustment
NOTE: The requirements for aligning read/write
heads by using track 100 of the OE cartridge to
obtain the oscilloscope display patterns Figure 4-8,
Section 4. 17. 1 are identical for machines with serial
numbers 00001 through 00050.
The location of the head adjustment screw, which is
accessible from inside the voice coil (Figure 7-7)
requires that the drive magnet be removed to gain
access to this screw.
Procedures for adjustment of the head-arm
assembly are as follows:
1.
Remove drive magnet from the actuator accord-
ing to procedures of section 7.6. 1 to gain access

machine to load heads. Manually move the
carriage to track 100 and detent by energizing
the even detent coil.
NOTE: Operate the CE Step Mode switch to ener-
gize the even detent coil. Ensure that carriage is
still positioned at CE track 100 when detent engages
rack.
5.
Allow the machine and cartridge to operate
continuously for 15 minutes to ensure that
temperature stabilization has taken place be-
fore adjusting heads.
6.
Scope from Pin D3B07. Set time base to dis-
play 5 ms/ cm (one revolution of the disk is
40 ms). Synchronize the oscilloscope on
