Hi all,

A friend gave me a TAKUMAR SMC 55mm f/2 M42 lens partly disassembled : focusing and iris rings are off, also the M42 mount and all related (auto/manual switch, auto diaphragm lever, springs...).

Iris aperture mecanism is not disassembled.

In addition it has some sticky old grease ito the focus helico?d and some oil is shown on iris blades.

The lenses need also some good cleaning.

Do you have any assembly schematic for this lens ?

I guess I could use it as a reversed macro lens if I can't remount the M42 mount & related stuff.

Thanks !!


Edit: it's a SMC, not "Super-Multi-Coated"
