D. After loading the fresh film spool properly, draw out the leading

end of the film and turn it across the film pressure plate (as illustrat-

ed). Run it down and turn it over to the take-up spool. Insert the lead-

ing end into the slit of the take-up spool and wind slightly until

securely engaged.

* Be especially careful regarding the running direction of the film.

When properly loaded, the inside black surface of the leader must

face outward when running across the pressure plate, as illustrated.

E. Rotate the film back winding crank on the right side of the film

holder in the direction indicated by the arrow, while checking the

advancing film. When the starting point, or arrow mark is aligned

with the triangular start-mark on the top left side of the film holder,

stop rotation.

F. The starting point, or arrow mark, can also be aligned with the

start-mark, with the film holder loaded in the film back. Simply rotate

the film winding crank on the camera main body, in this case.This

method is preferred since there will be coupling with the camera

main body mechanism, from the beginning.

B. Then, the film holder can be detached.

C. There are two spool holders on the film holder, with the top for the

fresh film spool and the bottom for the take-up spool.

The left-side shafts of both can be opened outward, by sliding the

spool as illustrated. Insert the right end of the spool on to the right-

side fixed shaft and, next, close the left-side holder (shaft) which will

engage the spool.

* The spool holders on the left side will be locked securely, when

back cover is closed.
