The 100 planar is one of the best lenses offered for the Hasselblad along with the 180. All of the lenses were good but some were outstanding.
When loading the back make certain the film is under the clip/guide on the side of the pressure plate. To do this you have to turn the lock key on the side to the lock position and it moves the pressure plate so the film easily slips under it. Then rotate the latch back to open and insert the film insert into the back and look it.
If your lens shutter fires while removing a lens just use a small coin to rotate the slotted cocking shaft on the back of the lens till it resets the shutter. It will take clost to a full turn and will stop at the point it is cocked.

One other important note is to always attach the extension tube to the body first and then attach the lens to the tube. When removing remove the lens from the tube and then the tube from the body. If you do it in the wrong order you run the risk of a lens / shutter jam.

David Odess has been my Hasselblad repairman and has a fantastic reputation.
Here is the FAQ section of his website:

If you get the original catalogs for these cameras you will see they made literally HUNDREDS
of accessories for this system. I call it "The Erector Set of Photography" for a good reason.
You can configure it into whatever you want to do with it. Have fun and ENJOY.

That is a very useful link, thanks!
I just discovered I can use my frozen Konica 220 film with the older style magazine I have once I figure out a way to plug the film counter peephole on that magazine, cool!

You're Welcome!
Here's more useful info for you:
http://www.hasselbladhistorical.eu/HT/HT220.aspx
I have a few of the Magazine 12 rubber plugs around.
Sometimes they are available on Ebay.
You can also stuff a ball of aluminum foil in the hole.
Cover the door with black electrical tape.
But the Hasselblad unit is a better solution.

That is a very useful link, since it explains how to load and use a regular film back with 220 film!
My first ever roll of Konica Centuria 400 in 220 is thawing from the freezer now, and will be loaded later today
