PROJECTING THE PICTURE
1. Turn the speed control knob (6 Fig. 3) as far as it will go in the direction marked
"Sound."
2. Turn the motor control knob (7 Fig. 3) to the position marked "Motor." If the film
feeds through the projector properly turn the knob to the position marked "Lamp," if
not, turn the knob back to the "Off" position and re-check the threading.
WARNING
If the motor does not start do not turn the Control Knob to the "Lamp" position until the
cause of the trouble has been ascertained and corrected. Failure to comply with this
instruction will result in extremely short Lamp life.
3. Loosen the lens lock screw (9 Fig. 4) and rotate the lens (10 Fig. 4) in order to focus
the picture on the screen. After the picture has been properly focused, tighten the
lock screw.
4. If parts of two pictures or a horizontal line appears on the screen rotate the framer knob
(11 Fig. 4) in order to correct the condition.
5. If the picture is too high or too low, rotate the tilt knob (8 Fig. 3) to position it on the
screen.
Note : If the picture is larger than the screen, decrease the distance between projector and
screen. If the picture is smaller than the screen, increase the distance between the
projector and screen.
6. If silent film is being projected, turn the speed control knob (6 Fig. 3) toward the
"Silent" position until proper rate of screen action is obtained.
WARNING
When projecting silent films do not advance the volume control unless a microphone or
phonograph is plugged into the "Phono-Mic" jack (6 Fig. 2) because the buzzing noise
produced by the sprocket holes will be very annoying and might injure the speaker.
7. If sound film is being projected turn the Volume Control (9 Fig. 3) clockwise until
the proper volume level is established, then adjust the "Tone Control" (10 Fig. 3) to
obtain satisfactory reproduction of sound.
8. When "The End" trailer appears on the screen turn the motor control switch (7 Fig.
3) to the "Motor" position and turn down the volume. When all of the film has
passed through the projector turn the control switch to the "Off" position.
