In my father's estate are a bunch of 8mm films. I have a non-operating
Kodak M77 Instamatic projector.

Has anyone ever taken one of these apart? I need to get to the back
where
the drive belt is and I will be darned if I can figure out how to open
it.
All I can find on-line is places to spend big $ to buy manuals.

Any help or copies of a manual would be appreciated.

Thanks


Well, I found this.. http://tinyurl.com/222ya .. Seems to be a complete
manual.

I also came across a site that offers "Some of our more popular Kodak
Parts"
called MicroTools. ALL the way at the bottom of this page
http://tinyurl.com/ysmdh is a gear that they explain as -

"Output Gear (M67/M77)
This gear is found in all M-10, M-67, and M-77 projectors. It is housed in
the
transmission which is riveted closed. To replace this gear, MAJOR
disassembly
is required, including drilling open the transmission"

My guess would be that if this gear is one of their most popular parts,
It's
the gear that fails on most M77's after time.

I would also guess that if your M77 is not working in terms of reel
movement, You may need the most popular gear being sold on a site called
MicroTools..... But they may also be able to provide more precise
information about access and replacement if you buy one. After all, I
myself
would not sell anything at my business that I had no god damn idea how it
worked or where it went.
