BenQ (200NSH-LAMP) Projector Lamp for PB6100, PB620 Logo
Posted on Apr 04, 2009

I have a Bell and Howell Model 456 Autoload Super8/Regular 8mm Projector bought in 1969. During projection, when the very end of the advancing film is no longer engaged by the rotating teeth, the film stops being taken up by the take up reel. I have to manually rotate the takeup reel slightly to get it rotating again in order for it to take up the remaining film. I tried lubricating the lower rollers, but this did not help. This was not an original problem, but has been occurring for many years.

The Bell and Howell Model 456 Autoload was made that way ON PURPOSE. The last foot or so must be manually pulled from the projector. As described in the manual, "this safeguard has been designed to prevent the end of your film from flapping against the projector after your movie is completed."
If the entire film was going into the take up reel at the end automatically, then THAT was a defective occurence. It is not supposed to do that.
