Hello everybody,

I need help to reassemble my old MF Telka 3. :sad::redface::redface:
I undertook to clean an old MF 6x9. To remove the top cover, I unscrewed the advancement lever (in fact it is a notched knob). By putting it back, the metal shaft that connects the wheel to the feed coil fell into the film advancing chamber. And there, amazement, I find in the advancement chamber, in addition to the axis, a piece attached to a spring, and a small cylinder. And I have no idea how they get back on the axis. I think they go in the lower part of the axis, the upper part being used to receive the knob screwed. I took pictures of all that.
If you have any questions for more precision, I will answer!
If you could give me a help, it would be wonderful for me.
A big thank-you ! (and sorry for my English )

The pieces: the main axis, the first piece with the spring, the 2nd piece like cylinder

^^^^^ I hate when that happens to me.
The pin looks like what you might find in a shutter button, it's pushed downward by a cable release. Just a SWAG,
The tension spring on the other piece is odd(and I know odd) because it's made to pull that lever. Can you find
an attachment point?

Yes, I will try to find an attachment point for the spring.
The advance wheel is something smooth, not like a lever. You turn it until it's blocked.
Thanks for your answer.
