Hi Folkes, any pentax experts get a chance to read my post 4/1/07 about the ball bearing location...still can't figure how it goes in and am hoping to be able to put it back together.

This might help -- it's a copy of the service manual:

I appreciate the diagram but I tried that before the two problems I have are: 1, the diagram either shows the bearing ABOVE the shutter plate which if that were the case it wont work because there is no pressure on the spring to keep the shutter dial in it's rspective position(lock auto M 125 and bulb)
2, the diagram shows the bearing sandwiched between the dial and plate BUT the two pieces wont sandwich because the ball diameter is large and it wont compress to sit flush.... there must be somthing I am not seeing properly!

Thanks, Morgan
