5. Preparation for Operation
Preparation of the camera for shooting consists
in its loading by the magazine with a film.
The loading is carried out under ordinary soft
lighting conditions.
Undo the screw fixing the camera in the case.
Remove the camera from the case.
Raise the lock shackles of camera cover 15
(Fig. 2) and turn them half-way round as far as
they go according to Fig. 3. Then pressing with
the thumbs on the cover, shift it in the direction
of an arrow, as shown in Fig. 4, and take off the
camera.
Put the magazine with a film into the camera
recess. Insert the end of the film into the slot in
the take-up reel as shown in Fig. 5.
Turning the shutter cocking lever 14 (Fig. 2)
pull the film so that its perforations should get
onto the teeth of both rims of the feeding drum.
Close the camera by the cover and push its
edge under the shield. Turn the lock shackles
half-way round and lower them into the
recesses.
To feed the unexposed film to the picture
aperture, cock the shutter twice, pressing on
release button 4 (Fig. 1) after each cocking.
The shutter cocking lever should be turned
each time as far as it goes, otherwise the button
will be interlocked and the shutter will not
operate upon pressing on the button.
