REASSEMBLY, REPAIR AND ADJUSTMENT
FUJICA AX -1
1 - 8 Gear assembly (6 - 47) and perforation positioning control
a.

Gear assembly (6-47)

o Check the cam plate (6-52) and stopper (6-48) to insure that they
are combined and positioned as shown in the right hand figure.
o Check the lever (6-51) to insure that it is provided with a proper
friction by the leaf spring (6 - 53).
o Note that if friction of the lever (6-51) is insufficient, the sprocket
will rotate reversely as the film advance lever is wound up Little by
little (so called inching) and the shutter blinds will return greatly.
o Note that if friction of the lever (6-51) is excessive, the film advance
lever will not be turned smoothly.
b. Installation of gear assembly (6-47) for controlling position of film
perforation.
o Combine the take-up spindle assembly (6-74), sprocket (6-79) and
lever assembly (6 - 69) in their positions shown in the right hand figure,
and install the gear assembly (6 - 47).
NOTE:
o After installing the base plate assembly (6-2), check the sprocket to
insure a tooth of the sprocket is in the position 6° from the camera
body center tine. To be more specific, apply a torque to the sprocket
with a finger lightly toward film rewinding direction, wind up the film
advance lever, and make sure that a tooth of the sprocket is positioned
as shown in the right hand figure.
Position of sprocket tooth can also be checked by observing sprocket
shaft (6 - 82). To be more specific, one end of the sprocket shaft
(6 - 82) is cut by a milling machine to install the gear (6 - 54).
Position of sprocket tooth is correct when the flat surface of the
sprocket shaft end is in right angle against the camera body center line
once every three strokes of film winding.
Be sure to install the gear assembly (6-47) at the position
where the sprocket shaft assembly (6 - 80), gear (6 - 83) and
pin (6-81) are engaged mutually.
