Set up the equipment
When the processor is in its operating position, it will
extend about 30 inches (75 cm) front to back. Select a
working surface which is deep enough. Be sure you also
have enough space to hold the negative and positive
film containers, and for loading the film holder.
Place the processor so that its insertion slot is facing
toward you and is about level with the front edge of the
table (fig. 1). Plug the power cord in at the rear of the
processor (fig. 2) and into the power supply socket.
Swing back the processing compartment and its lid
(fig. 3). The opened compartment must lie horizontally,
as shown, so be sure there is no obstruction behind the
processor which might prevent this.
If your processor is new, and has not been used before,
you must insert the processing roller assembly, which
is packaged separately. Carefully lower the rollers into
the well in the processor (fig. 4). Lower the side near
the timer into place first (fig. 5); the assembly will fit only
when the circular hole is aligned with the circular pin.
Then lower the right side. When the assembly is seated
properly, lock it in place by pushing back the two latches
(fig. 6). Be sure the roller access lid is seated properly
(fig. 7).
Hold the processor loading tray in front of the
processor in the way shown (fig. 8). Insert the tray into
the processor, easing it in gently as far as it will go. It
will then sit snugly against the front edge of the processor
(fig. 9).
The processor is now ready for operation.
Locate the processor in an area that is in subdued
lighting. Also protect the film holder and the film
from strong light as much as possible.
Unnecessarily bright and directional light on
photographic equipment always introduces the
possibility of some light leakage. The heat generated
by strong light can also be harmful to the film.
Cleanliness is important
To get the most satisfactory results, the equipment and
the film must be clean. The following require particular
attention:
1. Processing rollers
You should wipe the rollers before you process each
photograph, to be sure they are free from dust and
other foreign matter. Remove the roller access lid by
pressing down with the thumb at the point indicated (fig.
10) and then lifting it out. Press the process button and
hold it down and, while the rollers rotate, wipe a dry, lint-
free cloth back and forth along the full length of each
roller (fig. 11) Release the process button. Replace the
lid.
Occasionally the rollers may need a more thorough
cleaning. Remove the roller assembly from the
processor and clean the entire length of the rollers (fig.
12), using a dampened cloth if necessary.
Before you reinsert the assembly, remove all dirt and
particles that may have collected in the processor, below
the rollers.
2. Felt strips on film holder
Before you load film, be sure the felt strips on the
film holder are clean. The felt strips (fig. 13) serve as
a light trap. During the use of the holder, these strips
may gradually gather dust. At regular intervals, gently
rub a finger back and forth along the strips, to remove
dust. Alternatively, wipe the full length of each strip very
lightly with the sticky side of a small piece of masking
tape. This will collect dust and other particles that may
have accumulated.
3. Felt strips on loading tray
Below each of the two protrusions indicated by the
arrows (fig.14) there is a short felt strip. These strip are
