The focusing helical is attached to the focusing ring/knob by a small plate that is held by four screws. Loosen these, and you can remove the helical. I can't recall if you have to remove two metal guides from inside the bellows chamber. Maybe. It's been a while. Then, afterward, you should recollimate the lens to set infinity focus.
