Have a Keystone K-109 projector I had picked up a few weeks ago. Never used it before. Gone through the user manual to familiarize myself with it, did some cleaning and lubed what I understand need it, and then realized that the feed reel will only turn while rewinding. It will not turn in the forward direction (to feed film) or during the reverse; however, will during rewind. In the forward direction it feels like it's locked up. I took the upper arm cover off and don't see an obvious reason for it jamming and thought before going too much farther I'd check here to see if there is something simple I am overlooking?
If I'm not overlooking an obvious simple item, what might some potential causes? My first thought is that switch on the upper arm that reads "Off Rewind On" that the manually changes gears. The user manual says " . . . the rewind lever should be moved to the "on" position BEFORE STARTING THE MOTOR." My guess is this is where the problem lays.
Any ideas?
