I need to take the shutter apart for fixing the main spring. I have removed the shutter from the camera and wonder how to remove the primary curtain drum from the chassis? Any help appreciated.

Have you perused the Kiev Survival Site? I'm not quite sure if it covers that level of detail but it may help.

I have a text file of notes I made when I did a total strip-down on a 4a. If you PM me your email address I could send it. I took lots of pictures, and I'm slowly combining them with the text to make an html page of the job, but I am not very far down the road yet!
If you are aiming to replace the springs (there are 3) in the curtain spring-spindle let us know how you get on. I stripped the spindle as far as I could because it needed cleaning due to corrosion, but without removing the springs. Due to the way they are attached to the spindle I decided that it would be next to impossible to re-fit them successfully.
Anyway, worth a try if you have a broken one, so best of luck!
