Nice set, and great to have the box and instructions too. It's one of the items on my getting-increasingly-shorter 'would like to have' list 
BTW, if you ever feel the need to own a Copipod, let me know - it'd cost very little to post up to you!

The Adapter, when put on the end of the lens, splits the image into two parts. The image, when processed, is then looked at through the Viewer, giving a cool (at the time at least!!!), stereo optical effect

If you want a scan of the instructions in English let me know.
I have managed some nice looking slides with this kit but only works well for things fairly close up, i.e., few meters away. Subjects with some depth work well, and use about f/5.6.
I took some photos of the Alice in Wonderland statue in Central Park, NY, using Kodachrome 64 and this adaptor which worked well. Posting a scan is pretty pointless though!

I know this is an old thread, but I just got one like yours (early model that goes over a 49mm diam lens/filter)
It is a very interesting piece of equipment, simple and effective. The effect is OK, not as good as a twin lens camera (Verascope or so) and the result is a half frame picture x2 which placed in the viewer (slide) gave a quasi-3D effect.
Nowadays it can be used to make decent 3D sets with software (StereoPhotoMaker is free) and a DigiCam; in APS a 28 or 35mm lens work better.
Instructions are available in the Butkus site
Images look like this, with a fuzzy center border
