I obtained a Koni Omega Rapid recently but on developing my first roll of film I find that all the subjects are out of focus, although in a couple there are clearly things in focus a few feet behind the subject. So, I think the rangefinder needs adjusting. The distance shown on the focusing wheel incidentally gives further away number than the coincident images [if you see what I mean...] which basically reinforces the conclusion.
However, I cannot find instructions on line that are clear enough to follow - either there are dead links [even the wayback machine is down] or there's mention of undoing 3 or 5 screws or a circular plate on the back [mine has a small circle of metal, hardly a plate] and one scrtew on the inside [err which, none of the ones I have look very likely].
TLDR:
Could anyone provide a working link to instructions to adjust the rangefinder on a Koni Omega Rapid please? Or failing that, provide a step by step guide?
