15. Counter transporting adjustment
a) Check the function of counter dial stopper lever (C4) and transporting
claw assembly (C18).
b) If the vertical black lever of (0-C26) is bent forward, bend it straight.
c) Adjust the counter transporting function using the temporary counter
transporting gear (C34).
When back cover is closed, receiving claw (C16) and transporting claw (C18)
should be engaged to the first tooth of (C34) simultaneously with enough
gearing portion. Bend the tip of the claw which couples with the gear (C34),
If not enough gearing portion.
When back cover is opened, claw tip of (C16) must detach from the gear (C34)
with a clearance of about 0.5mm.
If there is not enough clearance, bend the other end of (C16) opposite from
the claw as shown in the figure.

17. Bulb off adjustment (Winding lever is at pre-advance position.)
After releasing the first curtain, adjust "B" off position with eccentric
screw riveted on bulb actuator plate (A504). When shutter rod comes back,
0.2mm clearance is necessary after releasing the 2nd curtain.
23900 Page 5of 15
18. Cocked shutter assembly (0-C23) - SW actuator lever shaft.
19. Main SW adjustment = (I200)
When shutter actuator plate is held in "ON" position, 0.2mm clearance is
necessary between longer contact piece of main SW and insulation blue
collar.
To adjust the clearance, bend the shorter contact piece.
When both contact pieces touch each other, and the shorter contact piece
is pulled down, the longer one should be down also as the shorter one does.
If there is not enough tension on the longer contact piece, it may show
uneven shutter speed.
When winding lever is at closed position, 0.2mm clearance is necessary
between both contact pieces.
20. Front board and mirror housing
When the above mentioned parts are installed, shutter block (E000) should
be cocked but not charge mirror housing.
Put on W14 (0.1mm) underneath front board and fasten it with (A132),
pushing down left. Confirm the function of self-timer, shutter mechanism
and mechanical back.

30. Top cover
(A131) - (A300)
Set shutter dial at "B"
Shutter restriction lever is set at left (viewing from back)
Put on top cover softly and fix it turning shutter dial to AUTO position
Four retainer screws
Rewinding parts, shutter dial, winding lever, etc.
31. Shutter stroke adjustment
a) Set shutter dial at "B"
b) 0.2mm clearance is necessary after releasing shutter.
Adjust the shutter stroke with eccentric screw.
32. X Synchronization with self-timer operation at "B"
When camera is operated with self-timer operation at "B" position,
exposure time should be adjusted around 11~13ms.
To adjust the exposure time, bulb actuator plate (A504) should be moved
up or down with eccentric screw.
Also check shutter dial 100X with self-timer operation in the same manner.
If camera is not adjusted as mentioned above, it is impossible to take
pictures with complete synchronization with electronic flash, especially in
the following combination such as shutter dial at 100X, winding lever at
closed position and with self-timer operation.
33. Focusing
23900 Page 7of 15
34. Body covering, self-timer lever assembly (0-A118)

b) Mirror release lever (0-A111)
c) Mirror housing
d) Connector (I100) - only loosening (I2)
e) Unsolder 5 lead wires
Purple 2, orange 2, black 1
36. SWg, SWm located underneath mirror housing
SWg = Magnet switch
SWm = Memory switch
a) SWg - Spring tension adjustment
8~10g spring tension is desirable: Check with tension gauge.
b) SWm adjustment
Bend longer contact piece as shown in figure.
Shorter contact piece should have proper tension.
(Check the tension after charging the mirror housing.)
c) SWg adjustment
When mirror housing is charged, 0.2~0.3mm clearance is necessary
between both contact pieces.
Bend longer contact piece as shown in figure.
23900 Page 8of 15
37. Adjustment of SWm and SWg
Time lag sequence of SWm and SWg
To check the time lag, an oscilloscope is necessary.
The time lag is determined by the variation in voltage when
SWm and SWg turn "ON" and "OFF".
Here is one example for time lag check with a single-trace oscilloscope.
Adapter should be made as shown below.
Adapter is connected to mirror housing connector and oscilloscope.
After charging the mirror housing and releasing it to put the mirror in
the "up" state, time lag appears on the oscilloscope screen.
The adjustment procedures can be referred to in item 36.
