OK cheers for the tips guys - just got back from a week away and ready to get to grips with this camera. I found a suitable set of pliers to unscrew the ring inside the belows thus releasing the whole lens/shutter section from the camera - great.

My next job is to get inside the lens to clean the inner faces elements of the elements. like on the link above i'd rather do this from the back as not to upset the focus calibration on the front element/s. I can't however see how to get the back element to unscrew. There doesn't seem to be anything there to grip. I would try taking the front element off instead, only if someone can persuade me that keeping the focus calibration is not a nightmare. I really don't want to have to fool around with ground glass in the film plane unless I really really have to. Any ideas?
