It has been a while since I was there and I had the front off but I cannot remember if that actually allows you to take the whole shutter off. The front panel can only come off if you take both side panels off and uncouple the focussing excenter on the left side where the knob is and I think I had to take the right side off to be able to get the guide rails lined up (or was there a stop?)on reassembling. If the focussing is working without too much play and is not too stiff I would leave it alone as this is a part of the camera that is underengineered, if it works do not go looking for trouble. If you keep the shutter release on the top depressed you can "excercise" the shutterblades with the cocking lever and use lighterfluid to wash all the muck out, I would try that first. |
