14. MAINTENANCE
The movie camera is precise device consisting of complex mechanical, electrical and optical systems. Be especially careful
handling optics and claw mechanism. Only operators and techs with special skills can service and repair the camera. The
maintenance includes following procedures:
1)
servicing before operation;
2)
routine maintenance;
3)
repair.
14.1. Servicing before operation
Do following before using the camera:
1)
clean the film transporting channel. To do this:
-
blow out any dust from the camera by means of syringe;
-
remove front gate, clean it with soft cloth moistured in spirit (do not remove a scale by hard tools);
-
remove the claw mechanism and clean the rear gate as described above;
Note: Do not disassemble the claw mechanism.
-
pull the clamping rollers and LED plate, and clean them with soft cloth moistured in spirit;
-
clean a support surfaces of the sprockets.
ATTENTION! Make sure that spirit isn’t get to the reg pins guider.
-
set the front gate and claw mechanism back.
2)
clean necessary optics:
-
remove a lens from the camera;
-
use a syringe of sift brush to remove a dust from optical surfaces of the lens and viewfinder;
-
remove any oil or fingerprints by means of soft napkin moistured in spirit;
-
place the lens and viewfinder back onto the camera.
Lubricate a cone gears after 5-6 shootings. To do this, remove the camera side lid, remove old lube from the cone gears by soft
napkin, clean them by napkin moistured in gasoline, and put a thin layer of lube VNIINP-271 TU38-102603-76.
Lubricate the reg pins fork finger with same time pattern with lube VNIINP-271.
Always check the film tension. If the film is too weak or too tight on the take-up spool, check and adjust it’s friction clutch. Use
the tool AGD5.178.011091 from the ZIP set.
Place the lube VNIINP-271 into the grooves of the brass cross-piece and cog wheels of the shutter.
Take care of the electric connectors condition.
Check the film counter and mag opening regularly.
Do not operate the camera with defective control devices. Tight securing screws or replace a control handles if necessary.
14.2. Routine maintenance
The routine maintenance is essential for providing long and reliable work of the camera. The maintenance should be done after
5000, 15000, 30000, 50000, 70000 and 90000m of the film passed through the camera.
Over 90000m, the maintenance should be done each 15000m. Make a visual check of film movement after each maintenance
procedure. Refer to the table 10 to learn what is necessary to do.
