You will probably only need to take the front off to see the focus mech. Start by removing the bottom, 5 screws, 3 long, 2 short, one hidden under the self timer lever. Then remove the sliding cover, tipping it up and back starting at the bottom. Watch for the short aluminum dowel to fall out from the detent spring. The front comes off with one bright screw from the front and one black screw from inside the camera near the film take up spool.

Once the front is off, you should be able to see the mechanism by which the focus lever is attached to the lens. Also remember that there is an additional lever whereby the closing cover bumps the focus back to the intermediate setting.

Good luck!
