Rangefinder/focus on Super Ikonta A 530

[specklespeckle]

I just bought a Super Ikonta A 530 (16 on 120), serial number 1266203. What a beauty! BUT the rangefinder is clearly wrong, unable to line up an object 3m away (the focussing ring wants to go "beyond infinity").

Is it easy to adjust this?

depends if its a horizontal or vertical problem and how brave you are if its a nice camera

Thanks Chippy

Thanks Chippy

Thanks, it's a horizontal misalignment so I think I'll try to make the adjustment described in the link. If anyone else has further advice it would be gratefully received. (I won't be try to do the adjustment for a week or two.)
