Maintenance and care suggestions
The camera, engine and cassette
oiling is required by the manufacturer
or the authorized repair shops after
50 operating hours. The camera drive
is provided with non-resinous, low-
viscosity, cold-resistant oil. For this, a
few drops are sufficient.
The optics of the search beam, the
mirror and the lenses in the turret
must be checked for cleanliness
before each shot. When cleaning the
dust, gently clean the glasses with a
soft hairbrush.
The film channel in the cassette must
be cleaned of the film dust deposits
after each shot. Likewise, the image
slider in the camera must be cleaned
with a soft cloth or brush after each
run. Due to its construction, further
maintenance of the camera is not
necessary.

the plug from the mains before
starting up and recharge the battery
