I unscrewed the rewind knob and it fell off the camera. Need instructions on how to reassemble.

Thanks,
Betty

Betty,

I assume that because you have not just screwed it back on,that you have a few parts in front of you? Do you have a knob assembly,a rubber washer and a silver washer?If so the rubber buffer fits between the knob and silver washer,then screw back on.Use a suitable item in the rewind fork to hold shaft whilst you tighten knob (screwdriver, piece of wood).

Do not push the rewind shaft into the camera if the back is closed,can be awkward to pull out against the pressure of the detent spring.Screw knob back on and open back,before doing anything.

If you have more parts off the camera or still have problems contact me directly.

Glenn
