A Customer Sent me a GAF Projector for Repair. He Said it was Barely Running! Very Slow. So I took a look at it. To my Surprise I looked at the motor and took it off to check! Its the same motor as the Elmo GS1200. As I checked the motor the motor shaft was very stiff! It hardly moved. I took the motor apart. As I did it fell apart. It was completely burnt out Inside. So I put a New GS1200 motor in. And turned it on wow it ran perfect! I gave the machine a good running it ran just perfect! Not a bad machine. It had excellent sound and ran Quiet! That was the original motor. About 44 years old. It has a good lens a bIg F1.3 and a 150 watt lamp. I set the lamp on high. Boy did that picture look good! The machine does not have a Hi, Lo switch. So you have to set from the back of machine. By pulling off rear cover.So just Remember that the GAF and GS1200 have the same main motor! Review by Leon Norris.
