Posted on Saturday, August 11, 2012 - 04:40 pm:        Sorry if this has been asked before! I recently bought an Agfa Isolette I but cannot get the shutter cocking lever to stay over to the right so that the shutter button will depress. If I push the lever it allows the button to go all the way down and then returns to the left but will not stay cocked. Could someone here guide me in the right direction to sort this out please?   Hanskerensky Tinkerer Username: Hanskerensky Post Number: 211 Registered: 05-2009 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

Have a look here : https://kyp.hauslendale.com/classics/forum/messages/2/23026.html?1321810547 Guess that the Vario or Pronto shutter has to be opened to get it fixed. You can find 2 images of the opened Vario of an Isolette I here : Opened Vario shutter . They show the cocked and uncocked states.
