tainer, unroll
about
two
feet
of
film. Place the spool,
with
square hole
down, on SUPPLY SPINDLE (Figure 13).
Note
that
lines and arrows on
the
inside
of
the chamber indicate
the
path
of
the
film;
two
of
the arrows
show
the direction in
which
the
spools turn.
Thread the film under the
SPROCKET and up between the GUIDES
(Figure 13). Leave a
free
loop
as
indicated by upper
loop
line and push
the film sideways
into
the GATE,
starting
at
the
top
of
the
gate. Make
sure
the gate seats itself, indicating
that
the film lies in
the
film track.
The camera should
now
appear
as
in
Figure 13.
Following
the
lower
loop
line, thread film under the STUD, and
under the
SPROCKET again, as
in
Figure 14.
Fit
the perforations over
the sprocket
teeth
which
already enga
ge
the film coming from
the
supply spool.
Close
SPROCKET CLAMP by pushing upward until a click is heard.
Attach
the
end
of
the film to the core
of
the empty take-up spool, by
inserting
it
in
the slot. Give the spool a few turns in
the
direction in-
dicated by
the
arrow
A (Figure
14
)
to
make
sure
film is securely attached.
Be
sure TENSION LEVER is pushed down
as
in Figure 13, then place
the empty spool, square hole down, on the
TAKE-UP
SPINDLE
(Figure 14). The TENSION LEVER can be released by pushing the
lug near the hinge;
if
this operation is forgotten, the door
will
perform
it
automatically.
The camera
should
now
appear
as
in Figure
14
.
Run the camera a second
or
two
to
see
that
the
film runs
smoothly
in
its
path
and
that
the loops are maintained. Directions for running the
camera are given on page
20
.
If
the upper loop increases, pull the film
down until the loop size is correct. Repeat
the
trial
run.
If
the film chamber is
not
on the camera, give
the
trial
run described
in the preceding paragraph by
turning
the
SPROCKET KNOB clock-
wise, in
the
direction
of
the
arrow
(Figure 14).
Close camera door.
If
it
does
not
close easily, the sprocket clamp is
not fully closed
or
the
spools are
not
seated properly.
Push the
DOOR LOCK
up
to CLOSE (Figure 11, page 10) and give
it
a
half
turn to the
right.
