I've just aquired a eumig dual sound projector, The motor runs fine but the speed contol will not move. I've managed to manually move the ball slightly but not enough to change the speed to 18fps from 24fps. Anyone had a similar problem? MIKE

Michael,
Does the ball move freely on its shaft by hand but only a VERY short distance up and down? If so, the problem is one of the actual speed change knob assembly seizing up.
Email me (with model number)... blagdonian(at)btinternet(dot)com and I will send you a detailed explanation of the problem and some helpful notes and pictures for rectifying it.
