Tensioning Film
To secure your film to the taking spool, insert the end of your film into the small notch provided
in the spool, then gently hand wind the spool a few times to hold the film in place.
If you don't want to bend the end of the film inside the notch, you can easily use the friction
of the film winding onto itself to secure your film to the spool. You can also use very light
adhesive tape.
Begin tensioning by pressing the 'load button,' or by manually turning the feeding and taking
spools simultaneously.
Manual Tensioning
You'll notice the compliance arms below each spool begin to move as you manually
introduce tension as in the diagram below. Once these are about a third of the way
through their range of motion, hold the spools in place for a second or two. Your
scanner will detect secured film on the taking spool, and its tensioning feature will
automatically activate, taking up the rest of the slack.
If at any point in a manual or automatic load you notice a problem, you can cancel the
load procedure by pressing the 'load' button again or firmly holding the feeding or
taking spool.
Your scanner will recognise either action and abort the load.
When manually tensioning film, you only need to apply enough tension to move the
compliance arms into the 'sweet spot' of their movement range - a little under half way.
Your scanner will automatically take up any additional slack.
