ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS AND GENERAL MANIPULATION
.
See that the switch
17
is in the "Off" position, as shown in
Fig.A.
The
connection cable with three cores which is supplied with the projector
and which allows earthing at the some time, if required, Is then
connected with plug
26
(
Fig.B
) on the reverse side of the machine.
When this is connected with the wall socket, the pilot lamp
23
(
Fig.A
) as
well as any table lamp that may be used, light up. They go out, when
switch
17
is switched on. On the reverse side of the projector, there Is
also a special switch
16
(
Fig.B
) which in the "-" (minus) position
switches on a resistance, provided in order to protect the projection
lamp, whereas in Its "+" (plus) position It gives the full voltage to the
lamp, thus obtaining a maximum output of tight. It is recommended to
start operation of the projector with the "minus" position of the switch.
The switch
17
(
Fig.A
) referred to above, switches on both projection
lamp and motor, while switch
15
(
Fig.A
) will set going the motor only
without the projection lamp lighting up. This switch serves for
respooling, for ventilation, or for a short trial run. The lever
21
(
Fig.A
)
varies the speed of the motor. Switch
19
(
Fig.A
) has positions for
forward and reverse motion and is provided for repeating a scene. The
lever
25
(
Fig.A
) operates a still picture device, while projection is re-
starled by turning back the same lever. When, in the still picture
position, the shutter remains closed, this is remedied by a slight turn of
the driving wheel
8
(
Fig.B
). The handle 2 (
Fig.B
) on the reverse side of
the lamp casing enables the user to centre the lamp corredly, thus
obtaining the maximum light on the screen. Tilting is effected by the two
screws
24
(
Fig.B
) at the back of the projector.
LOADING THE FILM.
The loaded reel Is put on the topspool arm, making sure when a
projetor for 8 mm film is being used, that the little pin on the spool axle
engages itself in one of the holes provided for this purpose in the reel.
The 16mm type of projector is suitable for the projection of films
perforated either on both sides or on one side only.
