Hello Arun.
I checked the files you sent I a noticed a few problems.

This syntax is obsolete, I have just removed it from ff3d to avoid this
problem in the future. Check the page 24 of the documentation for a
description of the syntax. If I am right, in your case, you should write
something like:
domain O = domain(S, outside(<0,1,0>));
which corresponds to remove the drums from whole box (they are all taken into
account since they have the same color).

This intersection is useless.

This box is useless. It is redundant with the definition of the global mesh M.

You should refer to the POV-Ray documentation. The colors must be defined
inside objects descriptions, this way:
         cylinder {
           <0.5,0,0.5>, <0.5,1.4,0.5>, 0.4
           pigment { color rgb <1,0,0> }
         }

I hope this helps,
Stephane.
