In order to obtain perfect scanning of audio and/or video disks through application of contactless scanning with a coarse and fine drive system for radial servo readjustment, the fine drive optimum working point is reached through a correct interaction of coarse and fine drive, even in the case of different large radial eccentricity amplitudes. This is achieved through adjustment of the coarse drive, using a comparator, as a threshold value detector, and through an evaluation of the pulse sequences occurring at the comparator output. A radial-error signal for the coarse drive is obtained from a control parameter for the fine drive. The coarse drive is started by pulses when the pulses obtained from a radial-error signal exceed a predetermined pulse-to-interval ratio.
