Hi,
I ran into a problem with my Voigtländer lens from an old folder where my old dial set compur aperture slider was stuck. I removed the back to check the mechanism and managed to get it to move freely again. Now upon reassembly I noticed that two springs are not attached to to the shutter mechanism (see the attached photo). The same seems to be true when looking at this guide:
Is there anything that I need to know about how to treat these springs when putting it together? Are they just supposed to rest outside of the mechanism or have the disengaged from another part of it? I also noticed that the longer spring points downwards, is this also normal or should it be straightened to be more horizontal?
I appreciate any pointers!
I tried to look for a service manual but couldn't manage to find anything for these early shutters.
