It would come and go and occasionally could be unjammed by pounding on top near crank with hand. (no sticks or hammers) That, coupled with a jiggling of advance crank sometimes did the trick. In the end though it had to be sent to Leitz in NY. It's been several years and can't remember the exact cost but somewhere near $200?????
