It is possible to view the contents of your 8mm film with a Sanyo projector.
The Sanyo 8mm film projector is used with 8mm-based film strips, allowing you to view the recorded content on a projection surface (such as a screen or white wall). Standard 8mm film strips do not have any audio encoding, so there is no speaker built in for audio, as it is not needed. Although there is a specific method of threading the film into the projector, once you have done it once or twice you won't have a problem performing the task again.
Instructions
1. Slide the spindle with the film strip onto the front stretched arm of the projector. There is a arm in front of the projector and behind. You want the film so it rolls away from the projector; if you're facing the projector from the side, with the projector on the left and the outstretched arm towards the right, you want the film to roll off towards the right.
2. Thread the film strip through the first bracket. The bracket has teeth that connect to the bracket holes on the sides of the film strip. Do not push the film strip onto these teeth yet.
3. Slide the film down through the projection opening. This is directly in front of the projection bulb. It then feeds down through a open trench and out the rear of the projector.
4. Pull the film strip up towards the collection spindle, which is attached to the back outstretched arm. There is a small slit in the spindle into which you slip the tip of the film strip. Rotate the spindle towards the projector a few rotations to make the film tight. Once secure, push the film strip down to align with the brackets on the front arm. This ensures the film rolls smoothly through the projector.
5. Press "Play" and the projector will begin to play the inserted 8mm film strip.
