Disassembly/Assembly of Camera

This section of the Service Manual describes disassembly/reassembly
procedures. Before performing any of these procedures, always make sure that
the camera is turned off and the film pack is removed.
To prevent any chance of electric shock, the camera should be opened only by
a qualified service person, and only after it has been disconnected from its
power source (film pack battery); make sure the strobe capacitors are fully
discharged (dumped). Also, take care not to damage (bend or distort) any of
the camera components during disassembly and reassembly.
