5.1 Notes on Handling Drives
The items listed in the specifications in Table 2.3 must be strictly observed.
(1) General notes
a) Do not give the drive shocks or vibrations exceeding the value defined in the specifications
because it may cause critical damage to the drive. Especially be careful when unpacking.
b) Do not leave the drive in a dirty or contaminated environment.
c) Since static discharge may destroy the CMOS semiconductors in the drive, note the following
after unpacking:
• Use an antistatic mat and body grounding when handling the drive.
• Hold the DE when handling the drive. Do not touch PCAs except for setting.
High temperature
To prevent injury, never touch the drive while it is hot. The DE and
LSI become hot during operation and remain hot immediately after
turning off the power.
