Linhof Rapid Rollex Manual or Instructions

[johnnymoped]

Hi,

I just bought a used Rapid Rollex.
Unfortunately it didn't come with a manual.
So, I have used many many different Rollfilm-Backs but just can't figure out how this one works.

Anyone has some advice?

thanks,

daniel

What do you need help with figuring out? It is fairly straight forward.

Hi Bob,

I think I figured it out:
1. Set the arrow on the counter-disc to the marker-arrow (if not already there after last film change)
2. Unwind the film until the start-arrows can be seen in the two round windows (that was the "hardest" part to figure out as there is no "start marking")

Is that correct?

[Bob Salomon]

That is correct.

Let me know if there are other questions or call me at 800 735-4373 from 9 to 5 EST. M to F.

Thanks Bob. I think I got it now.
And in case of trouble: the Linhof headquarter/factory is just two kilometers away. :)
