Does anyone know how to remove this part from the top plate? This is the part through which the shutter release rod passes. In Leitz exploded diagrams it appears that the roller is threaded to the bushing that's under the release button. I've tried a flex wrench on the bushing while trying to turn the roller with another tool (after removing the setscrew) but it doesn't budge. I'm assuming that the roller and the gear at its top are one part and do not separate as in the IIIc and IIIf. Thanks!
