I suppose if you can fix a watch you can fix a Compur shutter, but I'd never
attempt it myself.
The extra data on the lens indicates that it's a convertible lens. As a

Hi!
There are books, even on eBay, about shutter repair.
Check Ed Romney's material.
Oh! Collin et al g, is there any one who has this manual? If so,

Thanks in advance.

It worked well. I had to flag the lens to time exposures, so I wasn't

I don't have drawn schematics, but I remember finding an article online
about disassembling the shutter.
Do a search for compur shutter on google and you should be able to
