Hi,
I have recently acquired the better? parts of a Zeutschel CL2
microfiche reader, i.e. the heavy base-section with lenses
and slider mechanism.
What's missing is the 'hood' (with the matte screen and prob.
two mirrors?) and the lamp-fitting/construction from the base
section.
W.r.g. to the lamp compartment at the base backend -- it is
empty, and near it are two brown wires that have been cut off.
Not much of a fitting, or any indication as to what type of
lamp would be in there, and how.
When I turn the base upside down, the only thing I see is the
thin rod, which moves as you change lenses. It is threaded at
the end, but nothing is attached to it, so it's hanging loose
right now. Also there's a sort of rest with a felt pad.
I have no idea what the rod used to be for. Maybe a diaphragm,
or another tilting mirror to change light intensity as you
change lenses?
In any event, I would like to ask if anyone here is familiar
with this type of microfiche reader, and could give me some
details, drawings, or preferably pictures from the bottom side
of the base, to aid me in an attempt at some reconstruction.
Am I right that the hood was basically just two mirrors and
the matte screen?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks!
BJ
