PAILLARD
BOLEX Projector Stand
Let down the projector's front feet about
15 mm (3/5"). Place the projector on plat-
form of tripod, taking care that its feet
slide
into
the
appropriate
depressions.
Fasten
the
projector
into
position
by
screwing
the knobs down hard. Figure 7
shows the projector pointed downwards.
Figure
B
shows the
projector
pointed
upwards. To render the projection beam
horizontal, turn screw d on the tripod.
Set the operating switch to position c, focus the image of the gate
aperture on the screen by turning the focussing ring on the lens, adjust
the motor speed to eliminate flicker on the screen, and center up the
image on the screen by means of the tripod screw. Return operating switch
20 to "Stop."
The projection beam must
be
directed perpendicularly
at
the screen,
whatever the type
of
stand in use.

Installing a table or standard lamp, etc.
There is no need to make any provision for lighting the mechanism or
controls while a film is being shown, as the film transport mechanism is
very simply designed, and the operating controls and stopping device are
within easy reach. The universal mains outlet 17 fitted to the projector is
intended to supply an auxiliary room light (such as a table light or standard
lamp) of the same voltage as the mains supply to which the projector is
connected.
However the power in watts consumed by the lamp should not be greater
than the mains supply voltage.
E.g. :
Model MB-125 V- 125 watts maximum.
Model M8R-220 V-220 watts maximum, and so on.
The auxiliary lamp is extinguished automatically when the projection
lamp is switched on.
If the operator wishes to be able to dim the room lighting gradually at the
beginning of a show, he should insert a variable resistance or "dimmer"
of the appropriate rating in the auxiliary lighting circuit. Correct operating
procedure in this case is first to dim the room lighting by moving the slider
on the dimmer resistance, then to set the projector running and show
the fil m. At the end of the reel the same operations shou Id be repeated
in the reverse order.
