ACCESSORIES
PILOTONE MODULE
As already said, this accessory is a
crystal pilot frequency generator 50-60 and
100 hz. Its precision is ± 510
within a tem-
perature limit of - 20° C to + 60° C (- 4° F to
+ 140° F). The output tension is 1 v. effective.
A three position switch 50-60-100
selects the pilot frequency recorded on the
magnetic tape corresponding to the standard
used when transfering the sound to 16 or
35 mm perforated film.
Our pilotone-module provides two
possibilities :
1. If the clapper is required connection
by cable (diagram IVIN) of the image units
(camera/ battery) to the sound units (re-
corder/ pilotone module), the MIBAC camera
battery supplies the pilotone module. The
cable allows the operation of the pilotone
module when the camera is running and the
recording of the « bloop » information on the
magnetic tape. This associates the crystal
generator regularity with the automatic clap-
per advantages.
2. If no clapper is needed: working
without a connection cable between the
image units and the sound units (diagram
N.O.). In this case, supply of the pilotone
module must be ensured by a second MIBAC
battery, the first one feeding the camera.
GELATINE HOLDER WALLET
Designed for five gelatine holders (in
supplement to that in the camera and the two
included in the standard handgrip) the wallet
gives the possibility of having a set of f i Iters
to cover conditions that.might be encountered
during filming.

MAINTENANCE
RECOMMANDATIONS
If there are deposits in the gate (10)
(channel) particulary along the side pressure
bars, remove them carefully with a tooth pick or
preferably a manicure orange stick. Never use
any metal object.
It is important that the spring load pres-
sure guide (12) and the pressure plate of the
magazine (62) operate smoothly and freely. If
they do not work satisfactorily the equipment
should be returned to the supplier for adjusting.
Avoid the use of brushes since they are
generally dirty and have loose hairs. If a hair is
caught in the claw slot it may damage the
movement; if it is caught in the aperture it will
very likely appear on the projection of the film.
Using a clean chamois leather occasion-
ally moistened a small amount of alcohol
clean the plate, rubbing up and down. Care
should be taken not to catch the claw (13) with
the chamois.
CLEANING THE MAGAZINE
The sprocket drum and the pressure
plate roller-guides may be cleaned with a fluff le
cloth slightly moistened with alcohol. For the
interior it is preferable to use an air syringe.
For the optical parts use an air syringe.
Any other cleaning, even with optical or above
all tissue paper, could slightly scratch the sur-
faces.
AFTER SALES SERVICE
As all cinematographic equipment for
professional users, a general overhaul carried
out from time to time by the maintenance
service of your supplier will avoid troubles and
waste ot time and money.
The spare parts catalogue N * 7011
shows the ACL in the form of exploded dia-
grams that illustrate the location of all the
components that go to make up the camera,
motor and magazines.
INSPECTION AND REPAIR
TOOL KIT
A full set of tools is available for the
work necessary to keep the ACL in tip-top
condition.
The catalogue NO 7011 and a mainte-
nance booklet are available, on request, to all
users who have at their disposal a repair
workshop for the cameras.
