The cosmetic lock ring around the shutter release knob needs to be removed (without marring the finish) and the whole crank and spring washer assemble is free. Clean it all up and try again. The hardest part is getting that lockring off if you don't have the correct tool. Try removing it using a rubber cork or large eraser first. Microtools has the removal tool. regards, Vick -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+vick.ko=sympatico.ca@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+vick.ko=sympatico.ca@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Saturday, December 04, 2004 9:12 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: [Leica] M6 TTL crank Hi, My M6TTL has developed a nasty rough feel to the crank when I wind the film on. Maybe it just needs a good service (it's 3 years old and has had heavy use), but does anyone have a different idea? Maybe there's some little adjustment I can make?
