Methods Of Operation - BOLEX Super 8 cartridge projector Instruction Manual

At the end of projection, wait until
the last film has been rewound -
i.e. until the red light goes out -
before removing the last cartridge.
Never leave partially rewound or
projected film in the projector, as
the leader might become distorted
and affect perfect operation .
An incorporated screen holder is provided for rapid film viewing.
This can be used if the projector is fitted with a zoom lens.
Pullout the holder as far as the stop and place the screen, supplied
with the projector, in one of the grooves of the holder. Adjust the
focus with the zoom in the wide-angle position. Alternatively, you can
place in the holder a ground glass or a sheet of ground acetate, its
translucency serving as a screen .
