time is extended to approximately 1 second, it is adjusted in the following
manner:

Bend C9330 so that it touches the cam of Shutter Speed Selecting Disc
C9329.
When Slow Shutter Governor CU002 does not operate at l/l5, because the mesh
between Slow Speed Setting Lever C9349 and 2nd Curtain Release Lever C9158
is shallow, and the exposure time is short, it is adjusted in the following
manner:

1. If there is an allowance in the mesh between Shutter Release Lever C9046

and Shutter Release Disc C9047 when the Winding Lever is fully wound,
replace C9047 and adjust.

See Repair Manual pages 11 & 12.

2. Set CU002 deep in the Body. However, be careful of the fact that if it is
set too deep it will sometimes stop and the shutter will remain open.

When the shutter is released at an unusual point after the Self-Timer has been
set in motion, it is adjusted in the following manners
Replace Screw B1266 with Screws B1267 and B1268 of different diameters.
When replaced with the small-diameter B1267 the shutter release will be
delayed, and when replaced with the large-diameter B1268 the shutter
release will be hastened.

INCORRECT FOOTS
When the flange focal distance is incorrect, it is adjusted in the following
manner:
Measure the distance between the lens mount and the pressure plate with
the 28.8mm Gauge and adjust it with Adjusting Washers COO34 so that it
is within +_3 of standard graduation.
If Front Cover C9163 should become indented by some kind of percussion
for over +10 graduations, replace Front & Back Cover SMO3O4.
See Repair Manual pages 2 & 4.
When the range-viewfinder is out of order, refer to the clause "Range-
viewfinder Double-Image Does Hot Align" and adjust.
When the lens is bad, as a result of tests with the L-Type Collimator and Lens
Projection Tester, repair the lens.
