Hi all,
I'm unsuccessfully trying to remove the top cover from a Leicaflex (first type).
I have removed all the screws and rings, but the cover can only "pivot" - approximately - around the eyepiece. The front (lens) side of the cover is more free than the back, and can be lifted around 5 mm with a little effort.

Do you have any idea what is going on? Thanks!
