operating tips<br />

The perforations in the film should be toward you as the<br />

film comes off the supply reel clockwise. If they are not, the<br />

fXm has not been rewound or was twisted while being re-<br />

wound.<br />

If the picture is unsteady, it can be due to torn perforations<br />

in the film.<br />

If you are not getting any sound while projecting a<br />

magnetic-striped sound film, check to make sure:<br />

Film is wound correctly on supply reel.<br />

Volume control is set at a listening level.<br />

If the sound is distorted, check to make sure:<br />

Speed control is set at the proper film speed (18 or 24<br />

ames per second).<br />

Volume is not too high.<br />

The PLAYBACK HEAD is self-cleaning (see illustration under<br />

"Cleaning Projection Lens," page 10). The movement of film<br />

across the head is sacient to keep it clean.<br />

1 Also, your <strong>projector</strong> mechanism has bearings that require<br />

no oiling.<br />

replacing lamp<br />

Your <strong>projector</strong> is equipped with an 80-watt, 30-volt, code<br />

DFE projection lamp with a rated life of 15 hours. It's a good<br />

idea to keep a spare projection lamp on hand. You can pur-<br />

chase lamps from your photo dealer.<br />

If the lamp should burn out during projection, accelerate<br />

lamp cooling by running the <strong>projector</strong> in the .STILL position.<br />

After cooling, turn off the <strong>projector</strong> and proceed as follows:<br />

1. Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.<br />

2. Grasp the top edge of the LAMP WOR, located at the rear<br />

of the <strong>projector</strong>, and pull it away from the <strong>projector</strong>.<br />

3. Pull the LAPKP-RELEASE LEVER toward you. (This releases<br />

the PROJECTION LAMP from the socket.) Lift out the lamp.<br />

4. Install a new lamp (80-watt, 30-volt, code DFE) by hold-<br />

ing it so that the shiny side of the reflector in the lamp is<br />

toward the lens (away from you). Place the center post of<br />

the lamp in the center hole of the socket. Rotate the lamp<br />

slightly until the key on the lamp center post drops in the<br />

socket slot.<br />

5. Press the lamp down all the way.<br />
