As anyone removed the shutter assembly from the body in the Bolex 18-5 L ? Were you able to do it without removing the sprockets (which is required with the 18-5) ? My reason is to want to lubricate claw arm / cam shaft intercession which seems impossible to do without removing the shutter assembly from the body. The projector is much noisier than my 18-5, which I attribute probably to higher mileage (Ebay purchase). I have lubricated all other friction points. The motor itself is quiet when I disconnected from the drive belts.
