KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector, Model AFT

The KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III Slide Projector, Model AFT, is a modified version
of the standard Model A projector. A timer-with-fade feature was added
specifically for use in cinema pre-show applications. It was available to a limited
number of companies involved with theater pre-show advertising systems. It was
not for sale through normal audio-visual channels for general use.

Kodak is providing this information as there have been a few instances of AFTs
finding their way onto the internet for sale.

The cinema pre-show application included a slide projector working many
hours/day in less than pristine environments. This means that AFTs are more apt
to be candidates for maintenance.

Unlike other slide projectors sold for general use, the AFT did not ship with the
following items:
.No user manual
.No slide tray
.No lamp
.No cabled remote
.No lens

It did ship with two documents as follows:

1) Laminated sheet “How to Use” (see document following)

2) “Important Maintenance Tips” (see document following)

FADE and VIEW controls

There are three controls for the special features of the AFT Projector. They are located under
the projector handle.

1. Automatic AFT mode (ON / OFF)

When this switch is ON ( I ), slides will advance automatically using the VIEW and
FADE times selected.

2. VIEW adjustment screw

Allows you to select the amount of time the slide is displayed on the screen, from
5 to 15 seconds.

3. FADE adjustment screw

Allows selection of the time it takes to fade up and down between slides, from 0.5
to 4 seconds.

NOTE: The operation will sequence as follows: fade up, change slide, fade down.
Selection of 0.5 second, for example, will fade up 0.5 seconds, change slide
1 second and fade down 0.5 seconds for a total of 2 seconds per slide change.

Important Safety Instructions

IMPORTANT:

Your KODAK EKTAGRAPHIC III AFT Projector is supplied with a 3-wire grounding
power cord to comply with UL122 and CSA222 Safety Electronics Standards.

We urge you to provide a permanent, properly installed 3-wire receptacle as the source
of power for this projector. Your projector is designed to operate with 110 to 125 volts,
60 Hz current only. Incorrect voltage could cause the projector to malfunction. Inputs in
excess of
125 volts will adversely affect lamp life.

When using your projector, always follow these basic safety precautions:

1. Read and understand all instructions before using this equipment.

2. Operate this projector with 110-125 volt 60 Hz current only. Incorrect voltage can
cause projector malfunction.

3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children,
or others who may not understand the need for these precautions. Do not leave
the projector unattended during use.

4. Be careful not to touch hot parts. For lamp replacement, allow the module to
cool before touching the lamp and the surrounding area. Do not place the lamp
module on heat-sensitive surfaces.

5. Do not operate your projector if the power cord is damaged or if the projector
has been dropped or damaged.

6. Position the cord so that it is not tripped over. pulled, or placed in contact with
hot surfaces.

7. If an extension cord is necessary, use a cord with a current rating at least equal
to that of the projector. Cords rated for less amperage than the projector may
overheat.

8. Always unplug the projector from the electrical outlet before cleaning and
servicing and when not in use.

9. Allow the projector to cool before storing.

10. Do not immerse this equipment in water or other liquids.

11. Do not disassemble this projector. Use a qualified service technician when
service or repair is required. Incorrect reassemble can cause electric shock the
next time the projector is used.

12. Use only safety electrical low-voltage (SELV) devices.

13. The use of an accessory attachment not recommended by the manufacturer
may increase the risk of damage.

14. Keep the airflow vents unobstructed.
