Connecting the Mains Supply
According to regulations in the different countries, every electrical
apparatus must be earthed. For this purpose the EUMIG P 8 ZOOM is
fitted with a socket. (Fig. 2, Socket
C
.)
Before connecting up the Projector, make sure that the motor switch is
in the "off" position as in Fig. 1 (i.e. turned away from the
red
dot). Now
switch on the Projector, at the same time inserting the female plug on
the mains lead supplied with the Projector into the socket
B
(Fig. 2).
Without opening the Projector, you can centre the projection lamp
exactly and set it so as to achieve maximum utilization of light. With the
lever (Fig. 1) the lamp can be tilted forwards and backwards. Lateral
and vertical adjustment are achieved by manipulating the knurled screw
(
1
). By the purity of colour and brilliance it may be perceived when the
most favourable position has been found. Light yellow streaks do not
cause any loss of brilliance or change of colour in projection, as can be
seen. The sockets marked
D
(Fig. 2) are for connection to a table or
standard lamp, which is automatically extinguished when the Projector
is switched on, and lights up again when it is switched off. Both screws
at the front of the Projector are for tilting adjustment (see Fig. 1).
Threading
Place the loaded spool of film on the feed arm, turning down the spring
tongues in the respective direction. It is important to make sure that the
film perforations are on the outside (that is on the right hand side when
facing the screen) and that the emulsion side (dull side) of the film is
turned towards the projection-screen. Turn the lever
H
downwards in
the direction of the arrow, to remove the gate, as in Fig. 5, insert the
film, then close the gate again. Now form a loop in the film above the
gate and lead the film over the feed sprocket
A
(Fig. 6). The film will slip
into position if gently pulled in the direction of the arrow.
