Film Head
Regardless of how the film head is cut, the film can
always be loaded. Optimal for loading is a straight cut
through the perforation holes. When cutting the film
ensure that no remains of the film fall into the magazine
as they could cause scratches on the film, damage to
the equipment or a film jam.
Cleaning the TC-Magazine
• Open out the lens on the recording unit .
• Clean the upper side of the lens with an optic cloth.
If very dirty, moisten the optic cloth with pure alcohol.
• Clean the under side of the lens with cotton swabs.
• Clip the lens holder.
If an empty film core is installed on the feed side pull it
straight off the core adapter. If the film core is too tight
on the core adapter, remove both from the film spindle.
Open the retaining latches and pull the core adapter with the
film core off the spindle, and separate the two outside of the
magazine. Before loading the magazine with film,
install the core adapter and lock the retaining latches.
Loading the Magazine
The film must be loaded with the emulsion side inwards.
With single perforated film only B winding can be used.
If the user is not familiar with the magazine it is recom-
mended before placing it in the changing bag that they
become familiar with the following:
- the position of the opening for loading the film,
- the feed direction of the film in the magazine and
- the position and turning direction of the gear clockwise.
