Author Topic: Manual for Philips FP20 John Moriarty Film Handler Posts: 50 From: Cambridge, UK Registered: Feb 2002 posted 03-08-2002 04:22 PM                     Anyone got a copy of the manual for the Philips FP20, no-one here has seen one.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 03-08-2002 11:01 PM                     It will be there shortly when time permits  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 03-11-2002 03:50 AM                        I've got one (somewhere - would have to dig it out of cardboard boxes at home), but it's in German only. E-mail me off list if this is any use to you - I could scan or photocopy the bits you're interested in.  |  IP: Logged Paul Vollmers Expert Film Handler Posts: 161 From: Sister Lakes, MI, USA Registered: Jul 2001 posted 03-11-2002 06:56 AM                     John, I just sent a copy of the FP20 manual to Brad, a few days ago, so he should have scaned, and added to the manuals forum soon. There's a lot of pages to this one, includes wireing too. So check from time to time.

Kinoton is a bit tight with technical information, presumably they don't want unqualified people messing with the machines. Maybe they've requested that their manuals not be posted here.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 02-16-2007 10:10 AM                     The FP20 (as it has historically been made) is out of production. There is an FP20A that is in production but it is really a value priced FP30, rather than a reincarnation of the FP20. I think they had a naming conflict with using the FP30A since there was one of those already! In any event, yes Kinoton does strictly enforce their copyright on their manuals. I don't think the Norelco manuals had a copyright or perhaps Kinoton does not control the Norelco copyright on the manuals that predate Kinoton assuming control of the projection equipment Norelco made.

I'll try Kinoton themselves.  |  IP: Logged System Notices Forum Watchdog / Soup Nazi Posts: 215 Registered: Apr 2004 posted 08-27-2008 10:26 AM                 It has been 557 days since the last post.  |  IP: Logged Jonathan Worthing Master Film Handler Posts: 384 From: Hereford, UK Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-27-2008 10:26 AM                     how old is this original post. But I ask the same question.  |  IP: Logged Robert Minichino Master Film Handler Posts: 350 From: Haskell, NJ, USA Registered: Dec 2005 posted 08-27-2008 12:35 PM                        And the same answer. Contact Kinoton or a dealer for a manual, they don't want others to distribute them.  |  IP: Logged Mark Beach Film Handler Posts: 6 From: HULL, Yorkshire, England Registered: Jan 2008 posted 09-03-2008 08:38 AM                     I have some FP50A manuals, Which have the same head and Mech as the FP20A's. These are the Kinoton versions tho not Phillips! Or are they the same?  |  IP: Logged Benjamin John Doman Film Handler Posts: 35 From: Slough, Berkshire, England Registered: Jun 2007 posted 09-04-2008 11:21 AM                     Most of the mechanics in the ‘new’ kinoton range are more or less the same as the ‘traditional’ FP20’s (apart from soundhead and turret / aperture plate changers etc) but the electrics are totally different. There were, I think, three different designs of electric turret / plate changer on the old FP20's.  |  IP: Logged Michael Harlow Expert Film Handler Posts: 170 From: Faversham, Kent, UK Registered: Jul 2002 posted 09-06-2008 06:50 PM                     Mr Doman Sir, are you any relation to Chris?  |  IP: Logged
