General
It is not mentioned in particular that the connecting lines must be disconnected for the
removal of a unit.
- Never touch screws secured with red lacquer, except when required in the manual.
Tools
The following tools and auxiliary means are needed:

Lens Carrier
Attention! Do not unscrew screws on the lens carrier or on the Zoom lens without
specific reason!
Only the screws indicated in the manual may be unscrewed without
causing damage!
Changing the Zoom
- Push back the lens carrier (= single lens position)
- Unscrew screws A (3 screws)
Attention! The Zoom comes down
- Take out the Zoom
- Installation in reverse order
Attention! Do not open the Zoom! Replace it only as a complete unit.
Focusing
- Set the configuration to the maximum Zoom enlargement (10.58) and select this
configuration
- Go to menu "Edit\Printer\Parameter\Justify\Zoom Offset\Base Offset\Basic Zoom
Offset"
- Expose a focusing test series (seven Prints):
* Select test ±X; X gives the step width of an exposure test series.
* The MSC101 jumps into the Reprint mode:
Print a suitable frame for focus assessment (if a single frame is used, there must be
enough film on the left and right side so that it is fully pressed down by the film
pressure flap).
After leaving the Reprint mode, the MSC101 returns to the Basic Offset menu.
- Assess the prints and enter the Offset value of the best print as Basic Zoom Offset.
Example: Basic Zoom Offset: 30. Select test ±
following Zoom Offsets: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45
Best print with an Offset of 20, i.e. 20 is entered for the Basic Zoom Offset.
Now print a test series with 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 with test ±2 , select again the
best print result etc.
If none of the prints is sharp, the Basic Offset must be modified. Proceed as follows to
find the Basic Offset:
5 for the first test series. Print a series with the
- Keep on exposing test series with test ±5 until an increase in sharpness is visible in
one test series.
Make focusing test series with the following Basic Offsets:
15, 50, 85, -20, -55, -90

Adjustment of the Zoom position
y-direction (direction of movement of the Zoom lens):
- Set the configuration to the minimum Zoom enlargement (3.25) and select this
configuration
- Put the paper gauge on the exposure table
- Push the gauge 135 on the exposure table from the right side (centre point hole about
in the middle of the window). While pushing in the gauge, lift the rubber roller by
pressing on the rocker.
#Sclehin1
- Project the gauge 135 on the exposure table (Test Mode: Focusing)
- Turn screw B until the projected centre point is on the horizontal middle line of the
paper gauge
- Tighten the lock nut of screw B again
x-direction (paper advance direction):
- No adjustment required!
z-direction (direction of the light path):
- No adjustment required.
A shift in z-direction only shifts the focus point. The focus is adjusted electromechanically (see "Focusing").

Adjustment of the fixed focus lens position
Prerequisite for the adjustment of the position is that the lenses have been focused
before (see the instructions attached to the fixed focus lenses)
- Push back the lens carrier (= single lens position)
- Put the paper gauge on the exposure table
- Push the gauge 135 on the exposure table from the right side (centre point hole about
in the middle of the window). While pushing in the gauge, lift the rubber roller by
pressing on the rocker.
#Sclehin1
- Project the gauge on the exposure table (Test Modus: Focusing)
- Unscrew the screws D
- Put in the lens
- Shift the lens until the projected centre point of the gauge is in the middle of the
graticule of the paper gauge
- Tighten the screws D
Dismounting the lens carrier
- Dismount the Zoom (see "Changing the Zoom")
- Remove the cover in the Scanner range (see "Removing the covers" in chapter "Color
Printer, Scanner area")
- Unscrew the screws C
Attention! The lens carrier comes down!
- Installation in reverse order
Changing the gas pressure spring
- Dismount the lens carrier (see "Dismounting the lens carrier")
- Take out the two marked lock washers
- Pull the spring and holder off the lens carrier
- Installation in reverse order
- Check the adjustment of the Zoom (see above)

Shutter
Dismounting the shutter
- Remove the negative carrier
- Push the Scanner to the right up to the stop
- Dismount the mirror (two screws)
#Spiegel01
- Fold up the dryer of the Film Processor
- Take out the last STB rack
- Unscrew the film supply (see "Flim supply, dismounting the film supply")
- Unscrew the top film chute (2 screws)
Note: Mind the correct position of the chute before pulling it out.
The left top edge of the chute is between the negative carrier and the active film output
#Frtsch01
- Pull out the film chute towards the bottom
- Push up the solenoid
The shutter is held on the darkroom housing only by magnetic force
1.6 26.10.95 AGFA MSC 101

- Pull out the shutter
- Installation in reverse order
Mind the correct position of the chute and the shutter (the shutter must lock in safely)
Note: If it is difficult to install the chute, don’t despair, this is normal! Make only sure that the
active film output is not damaged.
Paddle height
Adjust the height of the paddle with D-Cut shims so that the smallest distance between
the paddle and the housing is 0.1mm...0.5mm (over the entire swivel area of the paddle)
when it is turned (solenoid up). In normal position (solenoid down), the paddle may rub
slightly on the friction rib on the housing.
The paddle must not touch the metal cover when the latter is in place.
Note: At least one D-Cut shim is required
Shutter adjustment
Turn the solenoid in the 3 oblong adjusting holes until the bouncing and the noise at both
stops is minimised.
