SETTING UP THE PROJECTOR

Place the projector on a firm, level surface. Position the

screen just far enough away to fill the area with the picture-

about 10 feet for 35mm slides and a 40" screen, about

12 feet for a 50" screen. Open the Control Access Door,

pull the Power Cord out of its compartment, and plug it into

any 110-120 volt AC 50 or 60 Hertz outlet.

Your projector can be operated with the Remote Control

in its storage position-or you can remove it by pressing

down on the latch at the top of the control and pulling it out.

Note that the cord should be coiled and placed in the recess

when returning the Remote Control to storage. Check that

the Slide Return Lever in the Slide Collection Chamber

(see illustration at right) is down. Push down if needed.

Slide the Power Switch to LAMP to turn the projection light

on. Using the light, align the projector with the screen. To

center light vertically on the screen, press and hold the'

Elevation

Lock,

raise or lower the front of the projector as

required, then release the Elevation Lock to hold in position.

NOTE:

When setting up the projector and screen, have the

screen square (at right angles) to the projector-not tilted

to one side. Also, try to keep the center of the screen close

to the same level (height) as the projector's lens so the

image is not wider at the top than at the bottom. This

"keystone" effect is caused by projecting upward to

the screen.

00 NOT

use

books f other

Objects

to raise the front of the projector

beyond the height obtained wfth the etevatlon foot.

SHOWING THROUGH

THE PREVIEWER

Here's an easy way to preview, load, and show your slides

the first time. Set up projector as described on page 3

and position yourself at the right side of the projector.

1. Hold the first slide over the Previewer so that the scene

appears upright to you and with the emulsion side (etched

side of film-generally the printed side of the mount) down.

Insert the left side of the slide into the groove at the back

of the Previewer, then drop the right edge into place (see

illustration ).

2. Placethe Forward/Reverse Switch in FORWARD position,

then press (and release) the Slide Advance in the direc-

tion of its molded arrow to project the slide on the screen

and clear the Previewer for the next slide. Turn the Lens

Focusing Ring to focus the FIRST slide-the rest will be

focused AUTOMATICALLY

NOTE: If a slide is incorrectly positioned in the Previewer,

push down on the Slide Ejector to tilt the slide up. Then

remove, reposition, and replace slide in Previewer be-

fore pressing the Slide Advance.@ a slide is incorrectly

positioned when projected, move Forward/Recall Switch

to RECALL, press Slide Advance, then use Slide EjectQf

to remove / reposition / replace slide in the Previewer.

---

Return switch to FORWARD position and resume show.

•

LOADING &SHOWING SLIDES THROUGH THE PREVIEWER (continued)

3. Repeat step #1 and #2 for

each slide until all of them have

been previewed and shown. Then,

with no slide in the Previewer,

press and release the Slide

Advance twice to move the last

two slides you've shown into

the Slide Collection Chamber.

4. Place an empty Slide Cube

Cartridge in the rear portion of

the Slide Cube Recess (arrow

on cartridge bottom pointing

toward front of projector) then

slide it all the way forward. This

opens the cartridge and positions

it over the collection chamber.

5. Load slides into empty cartridge

by lifting the Slide Return Lever

upward with one firm, smooth,

uninterrupted motion until it locks

into its fully raised position. Then

slide the cartridge all the way back

to the rear of the recess (to close

cartridge) and lift it off the projector.

Be sure the Slide Return Lever

is pushed back down to its operat-

ing position before viewing the next

cartridge or storing the projector.

NOTE: Projector and cartridge

accept up to 40 cardboard-

mounted slides or fewer plastic-

mounted slides (0.055" maximum

mount thickness).

LOADING THE SLIDE CUBE® CARTRIDGE BY HAND

There may be times when you wish to pre-load the Slide Cube Cartridge by hand instead of through

the Previewer.

1. Hold the cartridge upside-down

as shown and slide the bottom

cover to the left. NOTE: The cover

is not removable but slides over

and stops. The words TOP-

BOnOM-RIGHT-LEFT on cover

are a guide to how slides are

inserted.

2. Holding the opened cartridge

with the left hand as shown, view

the slide to be loaded by holding

it with the right hand over a lighted

white paper or light surface. Turn

it so that you view it just as it

should appear on the screen. The

emulsion side of the film (usually

the printed side of the mount)

should be down for the subject's

right and left sides to be correct.

See the illustration below.

3. With the slide in its correct

position, tip the left side down and

flip the right side over as you drop

it into the cartridge. It will be in

the cartridge upside-down, but

the top and bottom will be correct.

Continue to load the cartridge until

up to 40 slides are inserted, then

close the cover. IMPORTANT:

The slides should be inserted in

reverse order-the last slide to

be shown should be inserted first,

etc.

V· ..

SHOWING A FULL SLIDE CUBE CARTRIDGE

To install a full cartridge, just place

it in the rear portion of the Slide

Cube Recess, check that the

platform of the Slide Collection

Chamber is down, then slide the

cartridge forward. Switch the pro-

jector on and start the shawl Use

the cartridge's identification label

to list the subjects and the dates.

Almost any type of pen or soft

marking pencil can be used.

When you change to a new car-

tridge, just focus the first slide

with the Lens Focus Ring-the

rest will focus automatically

It's not necessary to project every

slide in your cartridge. To "scan"

through your slides and project

just the desired ones, hold the

Slide Advance down until the slide

you want passes the Previewer-

then quickly release the button.

You'll now have your selected

slide on the screen. None of the

other slides were shown. This is

also a good way to preview a full

cartridge quickly.

The "recall" feature lets you bring

back and project the slide that has

just been shown. To recall a slide,

just move the Forward/Recall

Switch to RECALL and push the

Slide Advance down once. Then

return switch to the FORWARD

position.

IMPORTANT Only one slide

(last one projected) can be

recalled, not a full series. Slide

advance locks until switch is

returned to FORWARD.

CARING FOR YOUR PROJECTOR

To install a replacement Quartzline lamp (ASA Code ELH), run

the projector with the switch in the FAN position until the old

lamp.has cooled THOROUGHLY. Turn the switch OFF,UNPLUG

THE POWER CORD, and turn the projector on its side or back.

To remove the Lamp Access Door (on the projector bottom)

move the Lock Knob to UNLOCK and lift the door off. Move

the Lamp Ejector Lever back (toward the socket) until the

lamp is partially pushed out, then remove it with your fingers.

To install a new lamp, line up the two pins with the two socket

grooves, have the reflector under the retaining springs, then

push the lamp straight in. Replace and lock the door.

The slide changing mechanism is easily accessible in case

of a jam caused by a poor slide mount. Before lifting the

Platform, return the projector to the horizontal position and

remove the cartridge. Move the Instant Access Latch to the

left (rear) and lift the Platform to the vertical position. See

page 9 for slide mount correcting.

Use a soft, damp cloth (no solvents) to clean the projector's

exposed surfaces and top. The projection lens can be pulled

out and cleaned with a soft, lintless cloth dampened slightly

with lens cleaning fluid or water. Use a soft brush on the

Reflecting Mirror if cleaning is needed.

IMPORTANT: Slide film and mounts may be damaged if left

in the projection position when projector is turned off.

CORRECTING SLIDE MOUNT

PRO LEMS

The slide changing mechanism may jam if the slides

you are using have warped or frayed mounts. For

efficient and uninterrupted slide shows, always examine

your slides before projecting them for the first time

and re-examine them periodically for signs of age and

wear. Bent or warped slides can usually be straightened

and. it is even possible to correct frayed corners. In

extreme cases, remounting is necessary. Examine

plastic slide mounts carefully before use and remove

all rough edges or burrs that might prevent

smooth operation.

To straighten a bent or warped slide mount, hold it as

shown in the illustration to the right. Gently apply

pressure to reverse bend the cardboard mount-

taking care not to put fingerprints on the film surfaces.

Sometimes it is necessary to overbend the mount

slightly to straighten it properly.

This projector is designed to project cardboard and plastic thin slide mounts

per American National Standard PH3.43-1969 Dimensions for Projector Slides
