Hi all,
I have recently purchased a Bolex 102 MTC projector. It worked more or less fine, until the chain running inside the projector slipped out of the wheels (top and bottom).
I have tried to access it, so far without success. It seems to be encased in an aluminium case.
Would anyone know how to access it?
Many thanks in advance.

Here, in the UK, Oldtimer Cameras can supply paper copies of an Instruction Manual, and also a separate Repair Manual.
You might find that the repair manual gives the information you require.

I just bought the eumig R2000, neat little machine! I'm surprised how good the image looks on the TV style screen. It won't replace my Elmo projector, but I could see using it when I don't feel like lugging the projector around. It's actually built very well and runs quietly. The other nice thing about it is you can use with a room light on, and still clearly see the image on the screen.

Thanks for your replies and comments. I have since contacted Bolex in Switzerland, who confirmed that the repair would be difficult as the chain is housed in the aluminium case.

I will still try and access it indirectly through the hatch inside the projector.

I will keep you posted if I succeed...
