This is very easy the front has a long thread and you just screw it out of the lens tube. However between the lens assembly and the rest of the body there is a flat about 8 mm wide ring . I found that out when i first forgot it on reassembly. Whats the purpose of this ring? Since it does restrict the range of motion of the lens towards the film does it not affect focussing at infinity? And what would happen if i just leave it away?
