Sticky Copal shutter

Hi guys,
I have a sticky copal shutter. The wheel for the time is very hard to rotate. I bought this used. Is that a big problem. Has anyone a free manual fo repairing the shutter.
Thank you.
 
Hello guys,
i have found the solution:
1) Open the small screw on the top of the shutter
2) I could rotate the big nut to open the shutter cap. This ist the ring with the time und the ring with the red marker
3) on the bottom of the shutter cap was a lot of lubricant. I clean the cap.
4) After putting the cap on the shutter i decide to screw the big nut not as hard as before. The time wheel is rotating better than before.

remark: before putting the cap on the shutter you need to snap the small levers on the right postition.

That's all.
