AIR PUMP ADJUSTMENTS

The air pump controls air flow through the water in
tank WS1. Remove rack 3 to see the amount of
agitation. With DRIVE on, rotate the air pump
adjusting knob clockwise to decrease the flow of
air, counter clockwise to increase the flow.

If the drive stops with a film in the processor, fit the
handle and turn steadily, each turn should take 6
seconds. Guide the wet film out, it may require
additional fixation/washing before drying. If a film
jams in the loading box - use MANUAL CUT for a
35mm film; for 120/220 films darken the room,
open loading box and cut the film. Continue
processing. If a film jams in the racks - darken the
room if necessary, open processor and release the
film. Continue processing by hand or in the
