It is very important that solutions are not contaminated. Even traces of fixer in the developer will cause severe staining on the film. Never mix bleach or fixer in containers used for preparing developer.
Always wash containers out thoroughly with clean water immediately after use.
The use of a single small reel in a multiple tank is not recommended. The back-and-forth motion of the reel in the solution can give excessive agitation in the developer. If a single roll is processed use blank spacer reels to hold the loaded reel in place.
All photographic processing solutions can exert harmful effects when brought into contact with human tissue to a greater or lesser extent depending on the nature of the solution and its concentration. All users of such solutions should exercise the greatest care to avoid the chemicals contacting the skin, eyes or other parts of the body. Always wear solution resistant glowes and effective eye protection.
In case of accidental contact with processing solutions wash the affected part with plenty of clean cold running water. Wash with an acidic soap and rinse thoroughly with water. Consult a medical doctor.
Some photographic solutions produce irritationg vapours therefore thorough ventilation is essential. Do not inhale air above processing solutions.
Processing solutions and the empty processing tank can be kept at a room temperature before processing, but
they must be brought to
The developer temperature is critical. The other solutions and the wash water should be used at the recommended temperatures.
Agitation in the developer is critical and must be done with care and precision. As soon as the tank is filled, tap the bottom firmly on the sink or table to dislodge any air bells, agitate vigorously for 30 seconds. After the initial agitation, place the tank in the water bath for 13 seconds. At the end of this time remove it and agitate for 2 seconds. Repeat this procedure for 10 seconds before the end of the processing step. Then empty the tank by draining for 10 seconds.
Pour the bleach into the tank and agitate for 30 seconds. Using the same procedure as for the developer, place the tank in the water bath for 25 seconds then remove it and agitate for 5 seconds. Repeat these 30 seconds cycles until 10 seconds before the end of the processing step. Then empty the tank by draining for 10 seconds.
Fill the processing tank as rapidly as possible from a fresh water supply for about 4 seconds. When full, agitate vigorously for about 2 seconds and drain for about 10 seconds. Repeat full cycle. If desired use a running water wash with the cover removed from the tank.
Pour the fixer into the tank and agitate for 30 seconds. Using the same procedure as for the developer, place the tank in the water bath for 25 seconds then remove it and agitate for 5 seconds. Repeat these 30 seconds cycles until 10 seconds before the end of the processing step. Then empty the tank by draining for 10 seconds.
Fill the processing tank as rapidly as possible from a fresh water supply for about 4 seconds. When full, agitate vigorously for about 2 seconds and drain for about 10 seconds. Repeat full cycle. If desired use a running water wash with the cover removed from the tank.
Pour the stabilizer solution into the open tank and rotate the reels for 30 seconds. No further agitation is required during this step.
Remove the film from the reel and hang it up to dry for 10 to 20 minutes in a dust-free atmosphere with
adequate air-circulation. If a drying cabinet is used, the air should be filtered and the temperatura should
be filtered and the temperature should not exceed
