V. LOOP RESTORER
Loop Restorer works as under:
* The length of lower Film Loop is shortened.
* Fig. 25-7 is pushed up by film.
* Free-end of Fig. 25-5 is pushed up by Fig. 25-7*
* Claw of Fig. 25-9 moves upwards.
* Fig. 25-11 is set free from the claw of Fig. 25-9 and at
the same time Fig. 25-10 pushes Fig. 25-11.
Then Fig. 25-11 rotates slightly.
* Fig. 25-11 touches Fig. 25-12 which is rotating, and
rotates one revolution.
* Fig. 25-1, which is interlocked with Fig, 25-11, is pushed
down.
* Fig. 25-8, which is interlocked with Fig. 25-1, is pushed
down and reforms an adequate loop.
1- Adjustment :
(1) Spring Link 1 (Fig. 25-3):
* Set Main Knob at M £>" position.
* Adjust the position of Fig. 25-3 to keep approx. 1mm distance
in (q) in Fig. 25 and fix Fig. 25-3 with Fig. 25-4.
* Make certain that the distance (q) in Fig. 25 is maintained
after Loop Restorer works several times.
(2) Holder Link ( 2 ) Assy (Fig. 25-5):
* Shorten the length of the lower film loop by pulling up the
upper film loop by finger, while feeding the film.
* Adjust the position of Fig. 25-5 so that film may touch the
lower end of Fig 25-7 before Fig. 25-8 starts rotating and
that loop restorer may work smoothly.
* In practice, push Fig. 25-5 up to the highest position and
fix Fig. 25-6 slightly.
* Shorten the length of lower film loop by finger so that film
may be about to touch Fig. 25-8.
V
* Then bring down Fig. 25-7 by hitting Fig. 25-5 slightly with
screwdriver, etc. to the position that Loop Restorer starts
working, and'fix Fig. 25-6.
