Hello Bolex admirer,

I recently picked up a Bolex 18 -5L still new in box however, the lamp was out so I already ordered a few new ones. I could not take off the lamp cover or figure out how to do it. Although the projector came with all of the accessories, it was missing an owners manual. I also couldn't figure it's elevation control or how to raise or lower the front leg.

Does anyone have a pdf manual for this projector?

Where it the elevation control lever?

And how is the lamp cover taken off?

Thanks in advance!

Gerald here is a link to a user manual for the Bolex 18-5.

It looks pretty much like the 5L ....but the 5L has a 75W bulb vs. 50W. There's probably some other subtle diferences. I hope this is helpful.
