Thanks so much for the feedback and help everyone. Those links are very helpful.
I will try and remove the casing and see if the belt needs replacing.
I came across this video on YouTube. This is exactly the problem I am having.

Good day EDWARD,
If you want free info try this www.kodakparts.com
This is mainly about Carousel units but has good info on 8mm cine and you can download for free service manual/ instructions on the M series. The one on the M seies is 56 pages sopretty comprehensive.

Problem with Kodak Instamatic M80-L 8mm Projector
Hi there everyone,
I recently came into procession of a Kodak Instamatic M80-L 8mm movie Projector which seems to be in good condition.
It powers on ok and I hear the motor running. The lamp also works. Unfortunately the rear spindle and take up spool does not rotate. I placed the film leader into the film entrance but it doesn’t take and feed through.
Does anyone know what might be the problem?
I am pretty new to Super 8 and would love to get this projector up and running.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you
