in the spindlc assymbly {14} must be well
lubricated to provide a smooth, even take-up^
Excessive take-up tension is caused by insuffi-
cient or impropcr luhrication of the cork liner.
Weak or no take-up may be caused by r worn
cork liner or cily belt. Refer to lubrication chart
for proper lubrication.

5-l: TAKE-UP ARM ASSEMBLY
A. Description (Fig. #64 & 65|
The drive to the take-up arm is obtained through
the take-up clutch mechanism {ltems 1 1, 12 and
13). ln forward and rewind the clutch cam (12) is
engaged, driving the belt and take-up pulley (18)
in a clockwise direction for normal fitm take-up.
In reverse the clutch cam (12) is disengaged, re-
moving all drive to the take-up pulley {18}. The
arnrlunt of torque required to take-up a film is
proportioned to the weight and diameter of the
reel. As the weight of the film pack incrcascs the
friction between the spindle assembly {14} and the
take-up pulley (18) increases to provide the neces-
sary torquc to take-up reels up to 2000ft or 600m.
B. Adiusrments
1- The take-up torque
The take-up torque is automatically controlled
by the weight and size of the film pack, how*
ever, for this to function properly it is essential
that the take-up pulley (18) be well lubricated
and free running on the bushing- The cork liner
