Specifications

The Gear Next to the Focus Motor

Part 167348 is located next to the focus motor and is part of the mechanical drive system that transfers movement through the projector's focusing mechanism.

It is important to distinguish this part from the Focus-Motor worm gear. Part 167348 engages that gear; it is not the Focus-Motor worm gear itself.

How Part 167348 Works

The focusing mechanism transfers movement through a series of interconnected components:

Focus-Motor worm gear → Part 167348 → Focus shaft → Crossover shaft → Focus shaft gear

Part 167348 provides the connection between the Focus-Motor worm gear and the focus shaft, allowing the motor's movement to continue through the mechanical focusing system.

Replacement for an Aging Focus Mechanism

If this gear becomes worn or damaged, movement from the Focus-Motor worm gear may not transfer correctly to the focus shaft and the rest of the focusing mechanism.

Replacing the affected gear helps restore the mechanical connection through the focus drive system.
