INTRODUCTION
1. GENERAL.
This Service Manual provides the necessary infor-
mation for the repair and adjustment of the Bell &
Howell Company 16mm Automatic Loading Sound
Projectors, Models 1595, 2585, 2590 and 2592.
Major design and operating characteristics are
listed in the Feature Description List on the preced-
ing page. An illustrated Parts Catalog is included at
the rear of the manual to identify replacement parts
and to assist in the disassembly and reassembly of
these projectors.
2. DESCRIPTION OF MODELS.
As noted in the following chart, this manual
covers several variations of the basic 2500-
series automatic loading projectors. Each
model is "letter-coded" in the Parts Catalog
so that replacement parts which are not
common to all projectors can be readily
identified.

+ 2 u FF +
чо Ош >
1595A ..............
Except for differences in operating voltages
(single-line or multi-line) and certain spe-
cial features, all projector models covered
in this service manual are basically identical.
The single-line voltage units (suffix letter
“A” or “B” in the model designator) operate on
120V AC, 60Hz and are equipped with a line cord
that is wired into the projector. The multi-line
voltage units (all “АХ” models) are equipped with a
voltage selector switch which provides a means for
varying input voltages (120 - 240V, 50/60Hz} and to
match input voltage with those available globally.
A male plug is supplied to mate with a fe-
male receptacle located on the rear cover
for accommodation of global requirements.
Model 2585 AML is a militarized version of the
2585B unit and is further identifiable by two 5 amp
Slo-Blo fuses mounted on the top cover. The 2585
AXU and 2592 ASX models are the only projectors
in this series that are equipped with a front cover
containing speakers.
The sound system control knobs located on
the operating side of the base are not the
same for all models. The 1595/ 2585/2590 models are
equipped with a volume control and a single tone
control. All 2592 models are equipped with a volume
control and two tone controls: one for treble and one
for bass. |
All of the 2592 models are designed for
"still" projection, however, only the 2592A
model is equipped with the Directamotion ®
(animation) feature. To activate the anima-
tion feature place the main switch in the
"forward project" or “reverse project" posi-
tion. Then, with the projector running, place
the run/still lever in the "still" position.
To advance film frame-by-frame, press and
release the animation lever located at the
top left corner of the projector mechanism
housing. To advance several frames of film
(or a length of film at regular projection
speed) press and hold the animation lever
down. Release the lever to stop film motion.
To resume normal film projection return
the run/still lever to the "run" position.
3. AUTOMATIC LOADING OPERATION.
The automatic loading system consists of
a series of film guides, loopformers and
rollers designed to advance and guide the
film smoothly and precisely through the
film path to the take-up reel. This is ac-
complished when the system is in the "load"
(closed) position. When the system is in
the "open" (run) position, all guides are
clear of the film path. All projectors are
Service Instructions

completely gear-driven, with shifting from
forward to reverse accomplished by means
of a rocker plate/idler gear arrangement.
The upper and lower guides are connected
by a mechanical linkage with a locking lever
at the lower end to actuate (close) the sys-
tem. A film escape mechanism is included
at the upper end of the linkage to prevent
damage to the film due to jamming. When
a film jam occurs, the film will fold and
flow out through the kickplate of the escape
mechanism until‘ the operator has had an
opportunity to stop the projector.
To thread film using the automatic loading
system, refer to Figure A and proceed as
follows:
Step 1: Check the leader (first three feet of
film) for defects. If the film end is
damaged or torn, insert it into the
film trimmer (1) and trim the end.
bo
Step 2: Push the auto-load lever (2) forward
until it locks. (Note: If the projector
being threaded is equipped with the
still feature, place the run-still lever
in the "гид" position.)
Step 3: Turn the main switch to the "forward
project" position (3).
Step 4; Insert the leader into the film chan-
nel under roller (4). Push the leader
in until it engages the sprocket and
the automatic loading system begins
to thread the film. After two feet of
leader has passed through the pro-
jector, pull lightly on the leader end
until a "click" is heard signaling the
release of the threading mechanism.
Step 5: Turn the main switch "off." Attach the
leader end to the take-up reel and
rotate the reel in a clockwise direc-
tion to take up film slack.
4. SPECIAL MAINTENANCE
PRECAUTIONS.
Before beginning repairs, check specific
customer complaints against the trouble
shooting charts in this service manual for
the most probable causes and suggested
remedies. When repairs have been made,
be sure to clean and lubricate the projector
before it is returned to the customer.
The removal and installation of most pro-
jector components can be accomplished with
tools normally found in an audio-visual equip-
ment repair shop. Although most wiring
connections are made by quick disconnects,
a soldering gun should be available for some
repairs. Special tools and gages necessary
for projector alignments and adjustments
are illustrated and listed in Figure B and its
accompanying chart. The setscrew wrenches
and test films are listed in separate charts
and are not shown in Figure B.
Keep your work bench clean and uncluttered.
As parts are removed, group them together
in an orderly fashion and reassemble attach-
ing parts loosely to the parts they attach.
Note or tag electrical wires or connectors
so that they can be properly reconnected.
If there is any doubt as to the connection
of leadwires, refer to the proper wiring
diagram at the rear of the Parts Catalog.
9. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS.
Keep film path areas free of dirt and emul-
sion build-up; otherwise film jamming may
occur during loading operations and pro-
jection. Use isopropyl alcohol and the spe-
cial cleaning pad (P/N 48478) to remove
hardened emulsion, and be careful not to
scratch the surfaces that contact the film.
Pay particular attention to the sound drum
and the soundhead rollers.
Use isopropyl alcohol to clean plastic parts
and be careful not to remove lubricants from
critical areas, especially in the film thread-
ing linkage. These lubricants are applied
during the assembly of the projector and,
in many cases, it would be necessary to
partially disassemble the projector to re-
lubricate these parts. Blow away dust and
16mm Sound Projectors
Models 1595/2585/2590/2592
film chips with a low-pressure jet of com-
pressed air and wipe with a soft, lint-free
cloth. |
If the projector is especially dirty, the
transport mechanism should be removed
from the mainplate and thoroughly cleaned.
Brush or blow out all accumulations of
dirt and film chips. Wash "Oilite" bear-
ings and cams with naphtha. If cleaning
does not remove old lubricant from the
felt wiper and wick, these items should be
replaced. Clean ali other moving parts with
isopropyi alcohol and dry all parts with
a low-pressure jet of compressed air. As
soon as all parts have been cleaned and
dried, apply a light film of the specified
lubricants and reinstall the transport
mechanism.
6. LUBRICATION INSTRUCTIONS.
The Lubrication Chart in this section indi-
cates those parts and areas requiring lub-
rication. These are also pointed out in the
Parts Catalog illustrations by means of
ballooned letters "Г" (for oil) and "С" (for
grease). Specified lubricants are available
from the Bell & Howell Company. Be sure
that the part or area to be lubricated is
clean before lubricant is applied, and be
careful not to over-lubricate. A drop or
two of oil or a very light film of grease
will be adequate. Apply grease with a cam-
el's hair brush and wipe away excess lub-
ricant with a lint-free cloth.
Felt pads and wicks should be placed in a
shallow pan containing the specified grease
and allowed to stand until they are com-
pletely saturated. Wipe away excess grease
before installing these felt parts. |
7. GENERAL REPLACEMENT DATA.
These projectors are designed for easy
accessibility, removal and replacement of
most major components. Routine inspection,
trouble shooting and lubrication generally
can be accomplished by the removal of
the front ' cover, the rear cover and the
two covers located on the underside of
the base. Most of the wiring connections
Service Instructions
for the major electrical components are
made by means of quick disconnect con-
nectors or screw-on wire nuts, thus mini-
mizing unsoldering operations. Wiring con-
nections and leadwire colors are indicated
in the wiring diagrams at the rear of the
Parts Catalog.
The front cover is easily removed by un-
latching the two top cover latches and lifting
the cover from the projector. The rear
cover is secured to the projector base
with three screws and to the end caps
with two screws each (see Figure C). When
these seven screws have been removed,
carefully work the cover free from the
projector to the limit of the interconnecting
leadwires. The covers on the underside of
the base are secured by screws and can he
removed to expose the amplifier end its
controls.
8. FUSE REPLACEMENT.
a. Single-Line Voltage Models. The ampli-
fier power input circuit and the audio system
of these models is protected by a Slo-Blo
fuse located adjacent to the rotary switch
on the gear side of the mainplate. Remove
the projector rear cover (paragraph 11)
to gain access to this fuse. Additional pro-
tection is provided for the 2585AML units
by two Slo-Blo fuses mounted on the top
cover of the projector.
b. Multi-Line Voltage Models. The ampli-
fier power input circuit of these models is
protected by a Slo-Blo fuse located adjacent
to the rotary switch on the gear side of the
mainplate. The audio system of these models
is protected by three Slo-Blo fuses that are
mounted on a fuseboard/support assembly
*
ib
attached to the power transformer assembly.
To gain access to ail fuses, remove the rear
cover as instructed in paragraph 11.
NOTE: Refer to the appropriate schematic
wiring diagram in the Parts Catalog for
correct values when replacing fuses.
c. All Models. The electrical system of
all projectors is protected against acciden-
tal overheating by a special thermal fuse.
This fuse is installed on the bracket located
just above the drive motor. The projector
rear cover must be removed (paragraph 11)
and the wire nuts disconnected from the
fuse leads for replacement.
9. LAMP REPLACEMENT.
a. Projection Lamp. With the line cord
disconnected and the front cover removed,
swing open the lamphouse cover and press
in on the top of the lamp retainer spring to
unlock the spring, then swing the spring
down to release the tension on the projec-
tion lamp. Pull the lamp straight out from
its socket (do not twist or wiggle the lamp
during removal). Assemble the new lamp
into the socket and swing the lamp retainer
spring up into place. Close the lamphouse
cover and replace the front cover.
b. Exciter Lamp. Disconnect the line
cord. Loosen the thumbscrew on the exciter
lamp cover and remove the cover. Rotate
the lamp release ring until the exciter
lamp can be turned and lifted from the lamp
socket pins. Install the new lamp in the
lamp socket. Then press down on the release
ring and rotate to close the ring. Remove
fingerprints from the lamp with lens fissue
or a lint-free cloth and reinstall the covers.

DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY PROCEDURES
10. GENERAL PRECAUTIONS.
a. Be sure to use the proper size tools for
disassembly and reassembly procedures.
After removing attaching parts (screws,
nuts, etc.), loosely assemble these parts
to the removed component or to the tapped
holes in the major casting to prevent their
loss. .
b. Cemented or adhesive-backed parts are
so noted in the parts lists and can be removed
by carefully prying up one edge with a decal
removal tool. Be careful not to scratch
surrounding areas and remove traces of
old adhesive with solvent before installing
new labels or nameplates. If the new item
is to be cemented in place, use Bell &
Howell Company P/N 70507 cement. E the
new item is adhesive-backed, peel off the
protective tissue and smooth the item in
place.
с. When disconnecting leadwires prior to
the removal of electrical components, tag
the leads or make a rough sketch of more
complicated connections to assist in re-
installation. Where unsoldering is neces-
sary, use a soldering gun and a heat sink
to avoid the transfer of heat to adjacent
parts. Leadwire colors and connections are
shown in the wiring diagrams at the rear
of the Parts Catalog section.
d. When removing riveted parts for re-
placement, drill out the old rivets with a
drill equal in size or slightly smaller than
the diameter of the rivets. Use screws and
nuts of corresponding size to attach the
replacement part, making sure that these
parts do not interfere with the proper oper-
ation of the equipment.
e. The instructions contained in this sec-
tion are limited to the replacement and/or
repair and adjustment of major projector
components. If further disassembly is re-
quired, refer to the Parts Catalog section
for a more complete breakdown. All parts
listings are arranged in a suggested order
of disassembly to assist service personnel
in the removal and replacement of worn or
damaged parts.
11. PROJECTOR REAR COVER REMOVAL
(Figure C).
The lower end of the rear cover is secured
to the base of the projector with three
screws and to each end cap withtwo screws.
When these seven screws have been re-
moved, the rear cover can be carefully
pulled away from the projector base and
end caps to the limit of the interconnecting
leadwires. Normally, this will be enough
to expose ali projector mainplate and base-
mounted components for inspection, clean-
ing, lubrication and parts replacement. If
it is necessary for the rear cover to be
completely removed, all leadwires to the
rear cover components must be disconnected.
When reinstalling the rear cover, be sure
that no leadwires have become caught and
that the cover is fully seated before in-
stalling the mounting screws.
12. DRIVE BELT REPLACEMENT.
a. Remove the projector rear cover (para-
graph 11), top cover (paragraph 13) and rear
end cap (paragraph 15, step b).
b. If the drive belt is badly worn and in
need of replacement, cut the old belt and

28. GENERAL MECHANISM COMPONENTS
REASSEMBLY PRECAUTIONS.
a. Before reassembling mechanism parts,
be sure to ciean them thoroughly. Metal
parts can be immersed in a pan of non-
flammable solvent or wiped with a cloth
dampened with solvent; then blown dry with
a low pressure jet of compressed air or
dried with a lint-free cloth. Do not clean
plastic or electrical components with sol-
vent. Simply wipe plastic and electrical
components with a clean, dry cloth. Clean
optical parts with a good quality lens cleaner
and lens tissue or a lint-free cloth.
b. When reassembly procedures include
Staking or riveting operations, it is wise
to perform these operations before assem-
bling other parts. Be sure to support the
major casting or plate solidly during stak-
img operations to avoid distorting the casting
or plate.
NOTE: In many instances. you will find
that you can install previously riveted items
With screws and nuts. These are mentioned
in the reassembly instructions.
bo
ba
c. When installing electrical components,
refer to the wiring diagrams at the rear.
of the Parts Catalog for the proper con-
nection of leadwires. Refer to paragraph 45
for special instructions regarding testing
and replacement of the amplifier circuit
board.
d. Most of the nameplates and the instruc-
tion plates are provided with an adhesive
backing. Make certain that the area to
which such parts are to be secured is
thoroughly clean by wiping with a cloth
dampened with solvent. Remove the pro-
tective paper backing and brush the adhe-
sive with a mixture of three parts Toluci
to one part of trichloroethylene. When the
adhesive is tacky, press the nameplatecare-
fully but firmly in place. Wipe away any
excess adhesive with a cloth dampened with
solvent.
e. Lubrication instructions are provided
in the Introduction section of this service
manual. Do not over-lubricate. Apply grease
and oil sparingly as indicated, and wipe
away any excess lubricant with a lint-free
cloth. Gears should be lubricated by speck-
ing the gear teeth and then running the
projector for a few moments to distribute
the grease. Where oil is indicated, a drop
or two will usually suffice.
29. REASSEMBLY OF MECHANISM
COMPONENTS.
To reassemble the mechanism components,
refer to parts lists and exploded views
(Figures 14 - 17) in the Parts Catalog
manual and reassemble the components as
outlined in the following paragraphs. Rou-
tine adjustments for sliding fits, clearances
