Loading Roll Film
This holder is for taking 6 x 9, 6 x 6 and 6
x 4.5 format pictures with a 120 roll film. The
film is advanced by turning the knob. The
number of exposures are read on the back
of the holder.
The memo clip at the holder back cover
can accommodate a film box lid or a blank
paper pad for memorandum.
Unless photographing in 6 x 9 format, the
viewfinder field as well as the picture format
of the holder must be changed.
Installing the Picture Frame
Attach the picture frame for 6 x 6 or 6 x 4.5
format into the holder while a dark slide is
inserted in the holder. Insert the picture frame
so that the folded portion enters the dark
slide side (inner side). Insert the claws on
both ends into the grooves of the picture
frame of the holder while slightly bending
the picture frame lengthwise (as shown in the
photo).
When loading or unloading a film, avoid
direct sunlight. Do it in the shade.
By pulling out the back cover latch while
pushing the back cover toward the holder,
the back cover can be opened.
Pull out the spool change knob and place
a roll film in the film chamber .
Pull out the leader paper of the film, insert
the edge of the leader paper into the slit of
the take-up spool and wind it around the
spool once; then close the back cover. When
closing the back cover, press the back cover
toward the holder, pushing into the back
cover latch.
While observing the window for the
picture format to be photographed, turn the
film advance knob clockwise until figure "1 "
appears in the window.
Avoid direct sunlight when opening the
back window.
