over 50% of surface) and also free of
imperfections that create loose particles.
2. If magnets and drive magnet carrier were exposed
to product, they should be replaced.
3. Inspect drive magnet carrier for cracks and replace
if any are found.
4. Drive magnet carrier hub O.D. must be free from
grooves and scratches greater than .005 in. (.13
mm).
5. Inspect magnets for proper bonding to metal
carrier.
