Does anyone have the owners manual for the Kodak Ektasound 285 Moviedeck Projector? I'm looking for a copy.

I have a PDF of the 265. Would that help?

Yes, I would love that. Could you e-mail the file to me? I also sent you a private e-mail.

Good luck.

Hello, I wanted to inquire if anyone still had the PDF of the 265 available. I have a 285 which was working wonderfully but the bulb recently burned out. I replaced it with a brand new ELB bulb but it still won't illuminate. Just looking for possible solutions...

Fred...PM me your email address and I'll send you a MovieDeck User Manual and the Service Manual.

Will do. Thanks so much!

I always liked the design of these moviedescks (and one of the first projectors I personally owned was one of these), but they really aren't kindest projectors on film. That, and you can only go up to a 400ft reel, but what a design!

Fred...My guess is that neither of these manuals will help with the lamp issue. If the original lamp was working and then went out and now the new lamp is not working, then could mean that the new lamp is bad. On the other hand if something electrical failed that caused the original lamp to lose power and go out could mean both lamps are still good and there's something wrong with the projector.
In either case the manuals do not address this type of problem. You should test both bulbs to see if they are working or not.
