6 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
For manual tensioning, turn the feeding spool and taking spool counter
clockwise for a B/A wind.
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.
