Hey everyone! Welcome to my tutorial on the disassemble of a replica graflex.

To start you should have a small flat head screw driver, and pliers may be needed.

I suggest you take out the pins first, There are 6. Start with the ones under the "red eye".
Next, remove the glass eye and the bulb that's inside. The bulb should just slide out.
Now you should have something that looks like this.

Next we need to remove the slide on the side. I suggest you use a small punch and punch out the centre. After that you should be left with something like this (You might see the rest of the switch on yours tho."

Now lets remove the small screw on the bunny ears.

Good! Now gently squeeze the ears together and push it out.

You should be left with these pieces.

Ok, lets move on. Above the spot where the glass eye used to be there should be a screw. Take it out

Now the black innards should slide out. If you look inside you should see 2 screws. DONT UNDO THEM!
