Pacemaker Speed Graphic Curtain Repair

            When reassembling, gently lay it back into position making sure not to move the curtain or turn the winder. There are small washers on the back side so watch out for those too. The shutter button needs to be held up in the firing position to allow it to slip over a spring. Holding the plate down flat make sure the shutter button works before screwing it all back together. Once screwed together, using a screwdriver put about 10 winds on the bottom rod to tension it, then tighten down the shoulder screw to lock it in position.  You should now be able to wind the camera up to 500/1000 with each shutter speed showing properly and the curtain openings above the top roller. 

I've done this one time with my own camera and it worked great, but I make no promises or guarantees that any of it will work for you. :)
