3. Lift out the forward/reverse arm.
4. Using your spring-hooking tool, disconnect the rubber belt
from the pulley at the end of the shutter-drive shaft, Fig. D19
(the belt is just to the left of the fan). The belt connects the
shutter-drive shaft to the motor. So, as the motor runs, it
turns the shutter-drive shaft. And the shutter-drive shaft turns
the other parts of the projector.
5. Bend up the metal tab over the fan housing, Fig. D19, to
the position shown in Fig. D20 (bending up the metal tab
frees the fan housing).
6. Twist out the fan housing to the position shown in Fig.
D20.
7. Use your 1/4" nut driver to remove the 2 screws holding
the motor, Fig. D22.
T IP: The motor screws pass through rubber grommets.
You may find that there's a metal washer between the
screwhead and the rubber grommet as in Fig. D21. In that
case, the screw should come out without a problem. But if
there's no metal washer, the rubber grommet tries to turn
with the screw. To turn the screw without tearing the rubber
grommet, put some shutter oil between the rubber grommet
and the screwhead. The screw will then break loose from the
rubber grommet. On reassembly, also apply oil to the rubber
grommet; the oil allows the screw to turn without turning or
tearing the rubber grommet.
8. Remove the wire clip that holds the black and white wires,
Fig. D16.
V ARIATION: Some projectors don't use the wire clip
for the black and white motor wires. The wires then pass
under the casting post as shown in Fig. D23.
9. Remove the wire clip that holds the red, black, white, and
yellow wires, Fig. D24 (squeeze together the sides of the
wire clip and lift it out).
