Gauthier Vario Dial Set Shutter (12)
Vario dial set.
German everset leaf shutter produced by Gauthier.
When re-installing the Rear (Diaphragma) side of the shutter housing again you have to follow a procedure to get the blades right.
1) Place the Rear side over the screwholes.
2) Place the screws but only turn them in a little, the Rear side still has to lie a bit loose.
3) Actuate the shutter and keep it open. So use the T or the B with a locking Cable release (shown).
4) Tighten the 3 screws.
If you don't follow this you may run a chance that one or both Shutter blades get jammed because their tips can get between the inside mechanisms and the Rear side of the shutter.
