Drive servicing
T here are no official service intervals for drives, but servicing at least once a year is
recommended. Servicing can only be performed by a specialist MO drive servicing
company.
Moreover, it is absolutely vital to have
no smoking
in the same room as these drives.
T hey are incredibly susceptible to airborne dust and dirt. Cigarette smoke combines
the worst of all environments, as it is also sticky. I f you have problems with MO drives
and smoking occurs in the same room, this is almost certainly the reason for the
problems.
