So I've found the horizontal and vertical adjustments, but what is the best procedure for aligning the rangefinder? Is the best I can do to focus on object at infinity and line things up there? Or is there a more sophisticated procedure that any of you follow?

Also, what kind of lubricant do you recommend for the shutter on these cameras? A stuck shutter seems to be a common problem, I usually just release it with a little lighter fluid, but it will invariable get stuck again especially in warm/humid weather.
