Be sure to keep the gate of your machine clean. A certain amount of emulsion from films accumulates and this should be removed with a bone scraper.

Be sure to leave a full loop at both the top and bottom of the gate. Most damage to film is caused by not allowing sufficient loop or by not noticing a loss of loop while projecting films.
