MANAGERS AND PROJECTIONISTS HI it just about right tighten up screw 201 P, P. 2, and try the intermittent sprocket with your fingers. See General Instruction No. 5. When you have the adjustment made to your satisfaction tighten up screw 49P, P. 1, and the adjustment is completed. CAUTION. — Should you, for any reason, remove bracket 48P, P. 1, be very sure that its face and the face it fits on are perfectly clean when you put them back, because dirt might and probably would throw the part out of line and cause shaft 40P, P. 1, to bind in bushing 42P, P. 1. Also be very sure that screw 201P, P. 2, is set up tight. If it is not it will cause trouble. INSTRUCTION NO. 52.— End motion in the intermittent sprocket (see General Instruction No. 6) may be removed by loosening the screw in the steel collar between intermittent sprocket 41P, P. 1, and eccentric sleeve 43P, P. 1, and prying lightly against the rim of the sprocket with a screwdriver, letting the point of the screwdriver rest on the collar, which will have the effect of forcing the sprocket to the right and the collar to the left. Tighten up the screw in the ^llar while it is held in this position. INSTRUCTION NO. 53.— In threading the projector, when you raise the lower sprocket idler do not jerk it up as though you were working with a two-inch bar.

INSTRUCTION NO. 54.— The quantity of oil in oil well 213P, P. 2, should only be sufficient so you can see the oil splash on the oil window when the machine is running. In order to clean out oil well 213P, P. 2, remove the screw immediately below the glass window, which will allow the oil to drain out, you of course providing something for the oil to run into. Replace the screw, flood the well with kerosene and give the machine a few turns, after which remove the screw, drain out the kerosene and put in fresh oil. (See General Instruction No. 1). INSTRUCTION NO. 55.— With regard to the idler rollers (see General Instruction No. 12), in order to change the distance of idler rollers from the sprocket, loosen the clamping screw in the hub of bracket, one of which is shown at 800P, P. 1, which will allow of moving the bracket on its shaft.
