Film Type 2 Sensor Mount - Kodak X-Omat MULTILOADER 300 Plus Service Manual

The OPENER SOLENOID becomes energised with a short pulse. The OPENER PIN is
retracted and the tensioned SHOVEL ASSEMBLY shoots forward and opens the CASSETTE
LATCH. The SHOVEL is now engaged in the CASSETTE LATCH. As the CASSETTE
OPENER ASSEMBLY moves now upwards, the engaged SHOVEL lifts the CASSETTE LID. A
short time later both the CASSETTE HOOKS (the CASSETTE HOOK ASSEMBLY became
free when the OPENER SOLENOID was energised) catch the CASSETTE LID. The SHOVEL
HOOK is a safety measure. It prevents the SHOVEL sliding out of the CASSETTE LATCH.
The CASSETTE OPENER ASSEMBLY moves to its upper END POSITION. When it moves
upward the TENSIONER holds down the rear end of the SHOVEL HOOK and of the SHOVEL
ASSEMBLY. This causes the RETAINER to pivot up. The spring loaded OPENER PIN slides
under the RETAINER and the SHOVEL ASSEMBLY is tensioned again. The SHOVEL slides
out of the CASSETTE LATCH. However the CASSETTE LID is still held in position by the
CASSETTE HOOK ASSEMBLY.
To close the CASSETTE, the CASSETTE OPENER ASSEMBLY moves fully down. As soon
as the GUIDE SHOES reaches the rear wall of the CASSETTE TRANSPORT AREA, the
CASSETTE HOOK ASSEMBLY is moved towards the FILM CHUTE. This frees the
CASSETTE LID. The CASSETTE OPENER ASSEMBLY moves further down and the
CASSETTE HOOK ASSEMBLY becomes blocked by the LOCK PLATE. If the CASSETTE is
loaded with a fresh FILM, the CASSETTE OPENER ASSEMBLY goes to its very bottom
position to close the CASSETTE. If the CASSETTE is empty the OPENER ASSEMBLY just
goes to the CASSETTE EMPTY POSITION and the CASSETTE is not closed.
The CASSETTE is now transported out of the XML300. The CASSETTE OPENER
ASSEMBLY goes to its upper end position.
