Jeff's comment is right.... that lower loop is WAY too tight. I used to work at the Kalart Victor plant in Plainville CT, assembling the Model 70 and 75, and that method of putting your index finger under the lower safety lever was exactly what we were taught to do when we tested the machines after assembly.

Rad: What else can you tell me about how it was to work at Kalart Victor? How many employees? Mr. and Mrs. Quartin? General comments.

Great to hear from someone who was actually involved in building what I consider the best 16mm projectors ever made. The 70, 75, and 80 (solid state amp) were all superb, though in my opinion the autoload 90 was a piece of crap that damaged Kalart-Victor's reputation.

When were you there? I did final test/setting on the amps for those as well as the 80 and 90 series projectors and repair on the Kalavox addon for the Kodak Carousel projectors. This was in the late 70s as I remember.

@@irvl I also worked there in the late 70s when things were going downhill because of the emerging technology. Never met Mrs. Quartin that I remember but I do remember Leonard. Good place to work. When i left, they were down to maybe 20? employees.

Your lower loop is too tight. Rule of thumb (no pun intended) is to put the tip of your pointer finger below the lower safety trip, and form the loop around that. A proper lower loop will also improve your sound synchronization.
