M6 / M4-P Repair Manual?

[dpetrzelka]

First- please save your flames about people repairing thier own cameras, its lost on me. Right now I have no specific intensions of working on any of my cameras, but am fully confident in my mechanical ability to do so.

What I am asking is if there is a Leica M6 / M4-P repair manual available to the public, or are there private reprints or scans of such a manual around?

Exploded diagrams, electrical schematics for the M6, specifics of how to adjust shutter speeds all interest me.

Any info on specific resources is greatly appreciated.

I have found this site, Leica M2 / M3 /M4 CLA Overhaul, which does have some disassembly directions. But I would love to find something much more thorough regarding actual CLA procedure, and parts diagrams.

I don't know why such a request would be flameworthy, but thanks for posting that link! I've always wondered what lived under the brass top of my M2.

Have you seen the Leica repair articles on my website here http://pentax-manuals.com/repairs.htm ?

(Warning - the M2 manual is nearly 8Mb and 160 pages. I couldn't get it any smaller!)

Kim--

Ah- I had just found a bookmark I had made of your website, and was reading the M2 manual when you posted this- it looks like there will be a lot of great reading. Thank you so much for making those .pdfs available.

Cheers

There are more to come but it comes down to the hours in the day.
