[LargeFormat] Linhof Compur 0.0 Shutters

[Clive Warren]

This evening have been inside the Linhof Compur shutter on a 65mm SA 
to do a CLA. Someone else had been there before me but I now have 
most of it sorted out and back together. The one thing that is still 
puzzling me is the cocking mechanism which is gear driven from a ring 
attached to the cocking lever driving a small 3/4 crown wheel which 
has an associated coil spring and lever on the same spindle. Anyone 
been there or maybe a service manual?

These shutters are an amazing piece of engineering design - I have 
never seen so many small springs and beautifully machined levers 
calculated to do the same job as a larger shutter but in a much 
smaller space. Bit of a feat of design - best tackled before a visit 
to the fridge for the amber nectar.......

Cheers,
