Does any one know how to adjust the frame on a GAF 3000S? It seems the projector itslef does not have a frame adjust like most super 8 projectors.

About two inches above the framing knob and about two inches to the left is a small round black knob just under half an inch in diameter.
This is the framing knob.
Only a few minutes ago I was running my Chinon Sound 8500 which is a very similar projector. GAF were made by Chinon.

Andrew
Yes, of course. Sorry about that.
The framing knob is very small compared with the focussing knob.
