Having aquired a S800D I have a problem with rewinding the film while it is still laced up, it goes very slow and stops often. would readjusting the clutch on the front reel to give it more grip help, and if so what is the correct adjustment on it. any advice apreciated,
regards Brian

here is a link you can run it through google translator. there is a spring that stretches in Eumigs with age, thats the cause of the speed problem. there is a seller on Ebay that sells Eumigs with news springs in them, and thats who I bought my eumig from. I dont know what the spring size is, but heres the link for replacement:
