  1. Hello! Just registered to this forum and read your question / problem. I have a K3 (M42) and a K2 (bayonet). I serviced them myself and they make very fine images. Now to your problem: it could be the sprocket wheel being out of place on its axle. Load a small piece of film so that it runs like it's supposed to do. Now check if the sprocket teeth lie in the centre of the perf holes, use a small light to really see it well. If the sprocket teeth are on either edge of the perforation, the film may get cought by the wheel and jammed into the mechanism, instead of being fed out into the loop former etc. Now, if so, have a look at some nice instructions on k3.com and shift the sprocket wheel into position. It only takes a good quality small screw driver and some patience. There are two small screws which need to be loosened, shift the wheel into position and tighten again. Now, this may not be the cure, but there is nothing more which you can adjust in this area, so it's worth a try! Regards, Bart
