The recovery partition doesn't usually have a drive letter assigned it. Without a drive letter it cannot be seen in Windows Explorer and therefore cannot accidentally have data deleted from it.
The factory backup image on the recovery partition cannot be accessed with a Windows system repair disc. it can only be accessed by running the Factory Recovery process..

It should appear in drive management. You can't assign a drive letter to it. Philip is right, you need to go through the appropriate process to run the recovery. Cloning that partition may work if you are replacing the hard drive and etc (on the same laptop)
