Hello forum,
I am trying to repair my Retinette 1A which seems to have a permanently cocked shutter. I need to remove the lens/shutter assembly to check the shutter release and cocking linkages, then perhaps have a look at the shutter itself.

I would like some tips on how to proceed with this disassembly. I can get to the shutter by removing the focusing ring, front lens element, and shutter cover. But, I want to remove the entire lens assembly to see behind the shutter as well.

Any notes, drawings, photos, tips, websites, etc. are very much appreciated.

Thanks!
jeff.
