Adam Dargan Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Hello, I recently purchased a Rex 5 Bolex. Everything seems to be running well and accordingly but I am not able to change the shutter. It is currently on the sitting on the red line but will not move down if I try to. I do not want to force it. Am I doing something wrong or is there a defect in the shutter? Thanks, Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted June 13, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted June 13, 2019 You need to pull the lever out before it will move to change the shutter angle, then push it back in to lock a setting. A good copy of the manual is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxR_SVAX6J1ZWHdZSGFsZXh4Nmc/view If you've done that and it's still stuck, it needs a technician to look at it.

Adam Dargan Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 Thanks Dom! You were 100% right! Didn't realize it pulled out before sliding down. Thanks for sharing the manual, I'll have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
