Philco Shadowmeter
#10

I'm not sure that this sm has a fixed magnet. I believe that the spring centers the vane (that's what the magnet does).
It also sets the tension on the vane. I would tighten the adjustment screw on the back till just keeps the vane centered. Any more than that will add resistance to the vane movement which the electromagnet will be fighting against.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
