Hello I have two Yelco DS 810 MT projectors and they are pretty good machines. I am looking for a copy of the owners operating instructions, not that I cannot operate them (its easy) but that both projectors have what appears to be frozen framer knobs, ie they cannot be turned to adjust the frame (so far none of my films need re framing but what if.....)
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thank you

The instruction book will not help you with your problem.

I have a Yelco DS-800M and a DS-607M and the Instruction Book for each says exactly the same under framing:-

"In case the black demarcation line between the frames appears on the screen, turn the framing knob in either direction to make proper adjustment."

It is strange that both your projectors have the same problem, they may just need a spot of lubrication.

Thank you Maurice. Both projectors were bought at different times, l serviced them yet both have the same issue, yes the mechanics of both framers have been carefully lubed yet they are literally frozen, very strange.
