Retina I top plate question

[radiocemetery]

Hi Folks,
I just got a Retina I. It is a model 148 I believe. Can someone tell me which direction to unsrew the wind on knob so I can get the raised part of the top plate off? Thanks, I may have further questions later.

Perfect! Thanks Peter. I was afraid to use too much force on this knob until I knew the correct direction. The pictures make everything clear. Thanks for your response.
