Konica rewind knob

[Phoenix Phil]

Hi,

I am trying to take the top plate of Konica Auto S2 off. I have everything removed except that the top of the rewind knob will not come off from the spindle. The handle is removed and the entire top cover is free. Is there a trick to remove the rewind knob?

Thanks
Phil

Just put something like a slim piece of wood or plastic inside the fork on the other end of the rewind shaft and carefully unscrew the knob the opposite direction of the film rewind direction (clockwise) and unscrew.

Thanks Bill, I'll give it a try.

You wouldn't know how to take apart the shutter to access the aperture blades would you?

Wouldn't know/ try--sorry.
