Author Topic: Christie P35 Frame Drift Paul G. Thompson The Weenie Man Posts: 4718 From: Mount Vernon WA USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 06-14-2002 07:09 PM                     I have one that does it. The manual documentation is so poor it does not address that adjustment. I don't want to tear into that thing and make adjustments unless I have some idea about what I am doing. I might add the frame nkob does turn very easyly, too easy in fact. Any suggestions? Thank you.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 06-14-2002 07:22 PM                     While looking in on the backside of the unit, have someone turn the framing control up and down. You will see where the framing shaft is geared and there are 2 allen head bolts you can tighten to prevent this, or lock the framers down completely.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

I'll tend to that adjustment when the movie is out. <edit> Adjustment made, conditions are once again normal.  |  IP: Logged
