Hi! I've just found these info on a group in flickr and the first I thought when I followed the link was "MY GOD! This will be so cool for the people of rangefinderforum!"
So here they are

I know, one in german, the other japanese, but hey, you can't get it all! There's a lot of info in olypedia, nothing that a google translate can't do.
And you will not understand a word of what the jap mad man says for sure, but it is clear that he knows what he is doing.
Sure this will help someone a bit. |

I hope the German one locates the reverse thread screws. The Japanese one doesn't. Also, it is imperative you note the correct timing when un-docking the mirror box. Pen F repair is not for the faint hearted |

Well so far, I located the reverse thread screws and removed the lens panel with the mirror-box attached. I think I will not need to take it apart but will take care for sure. I think you are right. Apart from that I'm a beginner in camera tinkering, this one is trickier than others I've done.
But with these sites and the very helpful notes Rick gave me, I'm doing pretty well.
By the way, I now realize, by the nickname of yours, who can I ask to if any trouble arises  |
