I have a very nice Ikonta folder w/a tessar that has some clouding[not fungus] on the inside of the front element.How do I remove the front element?

Remove the set screws from the knurled focus ring and the front cell should just unscrew off of the lens.

You'll have to reset the infinity focus when you put it back together. This page might help with that: http://rick_oleson.tripod.com/index-123.html
