Attaching And Removing The Lens - Mamiya RB67 Pro SD User Manual

4 . Attaching and Removing the Lens

After cocking the mirror and the lens
shutter, mount the lens on the camera body.
Cocking the mirror
1. Remove the front body cap from the
camera body.
2. Be sure that the mirror is in the cocked,
down position in the camera body, shielding
the film plane from exposure to light.
If the mirror is up, cock the mirror by fully
pushing down the shutter cocking lever toward
the front of the camera.
Cocking the lens shutter
1. Remove the rear cap of the lens by turning
the bayonet ring clockwise.
2. Cock the lens shutter. Firmly turn the shut-
ter cocking pins with your fingers, to the red
dots (A) of the cocking position,
If the cocking pins are not fully turned to the
l
red dots (A), the shutter will not be com-
pletely cocked.
The shutter is always cocked on a lens that
l
has been removed from the body.
NOTE:
Do not place the camera on its back without the rear body cap or film holder being in place.
Otherwise the coupling mechanism may be damaged!
