Pronor SVS on Franka Solida IIIe

[duhartfr]

Hi!

I've just bought a Franka Solida IIIe. The suttre is a Prontor SVS.
I need to repair it, and i want to remove the shutter blades (one is defective), but i don't know how to do.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Fred

This might help you...

Thanks!

But i've already seen it..... and my shutter is not exactly the same.
The model shown on dan mitchell's site seems to be a size 00, mine is a size 0 (a little bigger).

My problem is how to remove the housing of the shutter....
dan mitchell gives some explanation for the size 00, but it seems not to be the same for the size 0.

Thanks

I once removed the Prontor SV from a Franka Solida III with a Radionar lens. Maybe that set of photos will help :

Thanks,

My shutter is a prontor SVS, not a SV.
Here are two photographs of the shutter:

Fred, sorry, no experience with the Size 0 SVS.

So you did allready remove the 3 screws which fix the shutter baseplate to the housing ?

 

[duhartfr]

Yes.....

and i can't remove the housing....

Must say that with my Prontor SV the shutterplate didn't part easily from the housing. Was a tight fit. This SVS shouldn't be that much different.

Did you check for hidden screws, i.e. by removing the escapment ?

 

[duhartfr]

I found no hidden screw, but I'll try to remove the escapement...

 

[duhartfr]

Thanks all for your advices.

There are no hidden screws behind the escapement or the delayer.

so i decided to pull the shutter plate... and there is no more to do!!
