Hi,I am restoring a Pathescope 200B projector at the moment. It has laid in the loft for five or more years after I bought it at a car boot for around £5.00. I need to know correct method of loading the film and would like to acquire some of the spring cords that are probably similar to that on the hand powered Ace I had as a child. Re. loading the film, can I take it that the small roller near the top of the machines body is only used for rewind purposes ? Does the lower spool cord have a 180 degree twist in it?
I could also do with a scan of the instruction manual if someone has one.
I will jot down the restoration notes so far and post it, in the hope that it will be of use to another owner.
Mike.

I have a photocopy of the instruction manual that you can have and pretty sure I have a spare spool. Just cost of postage. Pm me with your address.
The instruction manual will answer most of your queries.
