vlatko, hi. i've read repeatedly that the copal shutter is not supposed to be lubricated. it's meant to run completely dry. admittedly it's not the same shutter as i am working on, but i'm going on the assumption that it has more in common with mine than a compur would. i'd appreciate anyone's input on this that has experience with the seiko-fla. are there any sources for japanese shutter repair manuals/books? (i guess i should double-check in the books section, but i don't remember seeing anything about that). but you're right about the kerosene. i've been thinking about getting some for certain applications. it would certainly have it's place in a more complete disassembly where there's less chance of it getting where you don't want it. |
