Step 1
-
You do not need to be in the dark - dim the light.
-
Burnish a piece of tape, sticky side up, to the bottom surface of the film
protruding from the bulk loader.
-
Be careful not to pull extra film out. It is ruined by light.
|
|
|
Step 2
-
Wrap the tape around the spool
-
The long end of spool must be to left when film is pointing away from you
as shown here.
|
|
|
Step 3
-
After bringing the tape around the spool, burnish the other end of the
tape to the top of the film.
-
Do this without pulling film out of the bulk loader.
|
|
|
Step 4
-
Assemble the cassette over the spool.
-
Be sure the flat area is up.
-
Check the end caps carefully to be sure they are secure.
|
|
|
Step 5
-
Push the cassette toward the bulk loader until the crank can enter the
hole on the right
-
The crank must be all the way in.
|
|
|
Step 6
-
Close the small door on the bulk loader (on a new bulk loader the door
has to be closed before the crank enters).
-
Cover the crack at the top with opaque black plastic.
|
|
|
Step 7
-
Turn the crank in a clockwise direction.
-
Count the turns following the chart on the bulk loader (21 revolutions
makes 20 exposures).
|
|
|
Step 8
-
Take out the crank
-
Open the door
-
Pull 4 inches out of bulk loader
-
Cut film near bulk loader
|
|
|
Step 9
-
Trim and label the leader.
-
Put it in the camera or in a light tight film box.
-
Put everything in its proper place for next time.
