I'm about to open up this lens to try to get rid of a piece of lint stuck behind the front element. I want to check with you guys here if there are any pointers (of course a guide would be awsome) I need to keep in mind while opening up this lens?

So far I've removed the C/Y mount pice to have a quick look inside and I can image that there could be a few things that could come loose unintentionally or even needlessly.

Just a minor tip:
If the front element comes out by removing a retaining ring then a screwed insert, carefully count the number of turns, because it needs to go back to exactly the same position. Otoh, it might be located in position by a shoulder underneath, in which case it's ok.
