a)
Insert
and clamp
a blank diskette while
DC
motor
is
rotating.
b)
Move
the
head
to
trackOO.
c)
Connect
the
frequency counter
to
TP6
d)
Check
that
counter
shows 200±3ms.
e)
If
the
counter
value
shows
out
of
range,
turn
the variable
resistor
(VR1
)
on
DC
motor board
locates
bottom
of
drive.
Spindle
speed goes
slower by
turning
to
the
left,
faster to
the
right.
f)
If
the
counter value
shows
out
of
range
after
taking
method
(e),
exchange
the
drive
belt
and
repeat from
(d).
g)
If
the
