These shutters were made work with very minimal lubrication. It sounds like your cleaning fluid is not able to get into some of the very small spaces and the old lubricant is still creating a lot of drag. The only way to insure the shutter mechanism is totally clean is to completely dis- asseble the mechanism and clean each part indi- vidually. It appears your Demi S has a Seikosha shutter and you can find instructions and photos at Daniel Mitchell's website at pheugo.com. Use your digital camera a take a picture each time you remove a screw or part. Put your screws and parts in small envelopes and label them. I just got done cleaning a Seikosha SLV that was completely frozen because of the old lubricants that had migrated onto the shutter blades and now it works like a charm. Using any kind of lubri- cant on a shutter is a recipe for disaster. |
