Author Topic: Christie Manual Question Joshua Burnham Film Handler Posts: 43 From: Rainier, WA, USA Registered: Feb 2003 posted 04-12-2003 07:50 PM                     I have been trying for some time now to find a manual for an Christie SLC M35GPS but all i can come up with is one for the P35GPS. Can anyone steer me in the right direction. Thanks Joshua Burnham  |  IP: Logged Ken Layton Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1452 From: Olympia, Wash. USA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 04-13-2003 11:05 AM                     SLC is the lamphouse and M35GPS is the projector. Are you looking for the lamphouse manual or the projector manual? I live in Olympia over by Ralph's Thriftway just a few miles from you.  |  IP: Logged Joshua Burnham Film Handler Posts: 43 From: Rainier, WA, USA Registered: Feb 2003 posted 04-14-2003 03:00 PM                     Ken, I Have the SLC Series Console operation manual, but i still can't track down a manual for the 35mm Automatic turret model m35gps. I've tried Christie's website. I even went through the "manuals" section of this site and all i get is the P35GPS. I'm just wondering if there is some sort of error on my part and maybe thats why i cant track it down. Any information is greatly apprieciated. The first in a long line of questions from this novice film-techer.

I'm actually working with 8 M35GPS and 7 P35GPS. If you want I'll scan the 7 pages and send u via e-mail.

Is "Appendix C" the only difference between the P35 and the M35. If so is that why i cant track down the manual? If you have any information you think might be useful I would be extremely grateful if you could E-mail me the "Appendix C" at joshuaburnhamjr@hotmail.com. I'll take a look and see if i can make sense of it.

The diference between M35 and P35 is more than we think. Turret, Trap and gate assembly, Apperture plate, Pad roller, motor knob. I prefer* "suffer" with P35 because the lens turret can be full opened and it let me to thread the film on the trap and gate ass'y (on M35 I have to change to scope to get a little "gap" between trap and gate to thread the film). I has been sent the e-mail to you. (*)Really I don't like Christie 'cause it's like a baby, I must change it the diaper every minute! "post edited to add information"  |  IP: Logged
