Thanks for the tip Don. However, it is not clear which lever to activate. I have tried the release lever in the Winder attachment socket (pushing the lever marked A in the picture in the link below to the right) with no result. This was also the lever I tried in vain before removing the bottom plate. I have marked the other identifable levers with letters, in case you can lead me any further.

Thanks for the help so far!

lever is below the slot or cutout at the top front of the plate w/the #s on it - go straight up just above the wires. Use a flashlite & mag. glass to see it. Its about 1/4" long & should be silver. Using a small screwdriver, push it forward from its back L side -- shutter should release. Try cocking & releasing it a # of times & it might solve the problem.
