or damaged -until it has been examined by a qualified
serviceman.
5. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot
surfaces.
6. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a suitable current rating
should be used.
Cords rated for less amperage than the appliance may
overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the
cord so that it will not be
tripped over
or pulled.
7. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet when not in use. Never
yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
8. Let appliance cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely

the appliance is used subsequently.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CongratulationS! You have made a wise choice. The pro-
jector which you just bought is the product of the accumulated engineering
and manufacturin€l know-how of a company that has been making movie
projectors for over forty years: Eumig.
You will find that your modern projector combines outstanding
performance with operating simplicity and dependability.
Your projector, from the 600 series, is. a dual 8 projector
featuring still and multiple slow-motion projection. You can vary the projec-
tion speed from single-frame through a choice of slow-motion speeds (all
flickerless) to 18 fps, both forward and reverse. The projector is equipped
with a low-heat halogen lamp with dichroic mirror land takes reels holding
up to 400 ft. of acetat film.
The
Vario Eupronet zoom lens provides crisp, brilliant pictures.
The built-in film cutter, the pilot light and the automatic film threader make
it easy to set up for a show.
The Eumig
Mark 610 D has provision for starting a yassette
recorder in step with the projector. That means you can screen your silent
movies with sound accompaniment (background music, etc.).
The MARK 610D
~Uk is designed for those who require the
utmost optical performance and light output in a movie projector.
The high class exceptionally fast f/1.2 "Supmgon" zoom lens
with its 12.5- 25 mm focal length range plus the ideal design of the lighting
system yields about 35% more light flux on a 44% large 1r screen area than
models with the standard 15 -30 mm f/1.3 lens at the same projection
distance.
We do hope that you will get a lot of enjoyment out of the
Eumig projector. There should be nothing to mar your pleasure if you will
first get acquainted with it and be guided by the operating instructions which
follow.

Getting ready to show a movie
To take full advantage of the fast rew ind through the film channel, splice a 20-inch
length of leader to the head and tail ends of your film (unless it was ret urned to yo u
from the
processor with a leader attached). For trouble-f ree operation of the
automatic threading mechanism, trim the leading edge
of the leader squ ar ely with
the built-in film
cutter and cur l the first few inches cl ockwise . Avoid creasing the film. .
Insert about 11/4 inch of film into the slot on the
si
de , as shown at 0, and press the key 6 . Avoid
cutting through perforations by inserting Regular 8
film so
that a perforati·on is lined up with the edge
of the slot , and Super 8 or Single 8 film so that the
edge
of the slot is midwaybetween two perforations.

Be sure to move the function switch to the" 0" (off) position befo. re plugging
the projector in.
o Plug the power cord (mains lead) into an
outlet.
S Swing the reel arm up to the click stop.
f) Place the full reel on the reel arm (with the
perforations facing you) and flip over the
reel guard.
Films
wound the wrong way (not as shown
here)
must be rewound twice for projection.
o Push the universal film reel supplied with the
projector onto the takeup-reel spindle all the
way to the stop . o
Move the function switch to the auto thread-
ing position () (The projection lamp is now
being preheat ed. Pi l ot goes on with the
Mark 610 D.)
o Feed the film end into the threading slot until
it is caught by the threading mechanism. The
rest of the threading operation is fully
automatic.
0 , Move the function switch to the forward with
lamp position 0
o For reverse projection, move the function
switch past the" 0" (off) position to the
reve·rse with lamp position 0
o Turn the zoom ring to HII the screen.
~ Bring the picture into focus by turning the
focusing knob.
tD If a frame line shows on the screen, move
the framing lever until it disappears.
Ii) Adjust the tilt control to rais'e or lower the
projected picture.
Caution: Take care to operate the projector
so that air is able to circulate freely
through the ventilating slots
in the case and the back cover..

If the projector is very cold, let it run for a few minutes with the projection lamp on
to warm it up b e for e lo a. ding it. Should the motor stop for some reason, such as
a
momentary power failure, move the function switch to the " 0" (off) position,
then
back to the deSired operating mode.
Slow-motion and still projection
If you wish to show a given sequence of scenes in slow
motion , move the slow-motion switch to the deSired slow-
motion speed - 12, 9, 6 or 3 fps (frames per second) -
(9
or 6 fps on the Mark 605 D) or to 0 for still projection
during either forward or reverse projection.
To make it easier for you to locate the sWitch position for
the normal projection speed of 18 fps , it is marked by a
green indi
cator lamp during projection (not fitted on the
Mark 605 D).
Fast rewind through film channel
As soon as the leader attached to the tail end of the film moves into the picture, and
before the film comes off the feed reel:
Move the function switch past the " 0 " (off) and reverse with lamp positions to
the fast rewind (i nstant replay) position OJ .
The lens gate swings up, the projection lamp goe ,s out , and the film rewinds rapidly
through the film channel.
Direct reel-to-reel rewind
Of course the film can also be rewound onto
the feed reel externally, from reel to reel. This is
done by moving the function switch to the fast
rewind (instant replay) position OJ
Instant replay
If you want to show a given sequence of scenes once
more, you can interrupt the fast rewind at any time by
moving the function switch clockwi ,se to the forward with
lamp position 0

Movie sound from a cassette recorder by using a sync cable
(Mark 610 D)
The tripping contact incorporated in the Eumig Mark 610 D makes it possible to start
and stop a cassette recorder simultaneously with the projector.
However,
it can be used only with recorders havi'ng a remote-control jack.
The
recorder will start when the projector's function switch is moved into
the 0 forward
with lamp and start position 0 which oloses the tripping contact.
In all other function-switch positions the trippfng contact is open and the recorder
turned off.
Sync cable (Mark 610 D) :,
A connecting cable that fits most makes of cassette recorders is avai,lable from your
dealer as an accessory (Eumig Ordering No. 790.0267/5). It terminates in a sub-
miniature plug and comes with
an adapter for Philips-type DIN jacks.
Instructions
for its use accompany the cable.

Caring for your projector
All moving parts of the Mark 610 0 are permanently lubricated and require no
attention.
The film guides and film channel should be cleaned from time to time.
With a soft
cloth ora camel's hair brush, carefully remove dust and emulsion particles. To gain
access to the film channel, pressure pad a
nd film guides, take off the lamp housing
and swing up the lens gate. But first move the function sWitch to the top" 0 "
(off) position and pull out the line (mains) plug.
o Use a coin to turn the screw, then take off the lamp
housing.
e Push the lens-gate lat ch toward the left. The lens
gate will swing up.
e To olean the lens (with a soft , lint-free cloth or a
camel's hair brush), pullout the focusing knob a
little.
e Uft the lens out of the lens gate.
o Before replacing, check that the engageme nt
groove of the lens faces you (see illustration). No w
pull out the focusing knob aga in , push the lens
into the carrier tube and l et it engage.
Now swing the lens gate back in place and replace the lamp housing.
Proper film care is important. Clean
your films occasionally with a commercial film
cleaner. Store them in dust-tight cans in a cool, not-too-dry place.

Replacing the projection lamp (only with mains lead disconnected)
Nothing lasts forever. Projection lamps are no exception. When yours burns out,
replace it with a halogen lampwith cold-light mirror.
Type of lamp for: 12 V, 100 W halogen lamp with dichroic mirror No. 931.005/8
1. Remove the lamp cover.
e Swing up and forward heat protection plate.
8 Push down the lamp spring and turn it counter-
clockwise to disengage it.
Lift the lamp out of the lamp holder.
o Pullout the lamp plug.
When inserting the new lamp, take care not to
touch the bulb or the inside of the reflector with
your bare hands.
If you accidentally do, wipe them with alcohol.
o Plug in the lamp plug.
6. Raise the lamp spring and push the lamp fn contact
with the lamp holder into the centering hole in the
socket, taking care to locate the centering key in
the
centering notch.
8 Push down the lamp spring and turn it clockwise to
engage it. Subsequent centering of the lamp unit
is not necessary.
8. Swing heat protection plate back into original
position.
9. Replace the lamp cover.
Momentary line-voltage surges in some localities may cause the projection lamp to
burn out faster. Where this is observed, it is recommended that the projector's
voltage selector be set for the next-higher voltage level (230 volts instead of 220,
for example). This will extend the life of the lamp at the expense of slightly reduced
light output.
The
life expectancy of the lamp can be increased alsQ by letting it cool off at the end
of the show before putting the projector away . The hot lamp filament is brittle and
susceptible to shock.
