PANAFLEX MILLENNIUM
magazine
4.1 Magazine loading
The Millennium magazine incorporates a dual
motor system. The magazine controls the
speed of the feed motor and of the take up
motor for quiet operation and proper take up
tension.
Lift the cover locks out of their recesses and
turn both counter-clockwise to release, and
remove the cover.
Pull back the top lock of the feed side spindle and
transfer the plastic film core from the feed side
of the magazine. Place it on the take-up spindle
with film slot facing counter-clockwise. If there
is not a spare core in the magazine, one must be
provided.
The film is loaded in a “99” configuration.
The Millennium utilizes a single large roller in
the light trap. When loading, the tail from the
feed side should be pushed into the slot to the
left of the large roller. Grasp the tail of the film
and insert it into the right slot of the trap. The
tail should now be inside the magazine. Pull
the film to the right hand side of the take up
film core, locate the slot in the core and insert
the end of the film into the slot. Rotate the
take up core counter-clockwise several turns.
Replace the magazine cover to its proper seated
position and rotate the locks clockwise to lock.
When preparing the magazine for installation
on the camera, hold the film entering the take
up side stationary, and pull the film from the
supply side to the proper length. This prevents
the film entering the take up side from pushing
up and coming off of the core.
