(MARCH 1990)Concerning Repairs
1.
It is recommended that correctly operating samples of
the following components should be kept available for
reference when making camera repairs and inspections.
[sear [ee ie tina
Defective components can be detected and checks can be
made after repairs by replacing the various camera
components with these correctly operating reference
components.
For example, when a customer claims that the shutter
is defective, a decision can be made as to whether the
defective component is the lens shutter or the body
shutter by merely replacing the lens and checking.
 
Never use organic solvents such as “the shutter speed
index lenses or exposure counter lenses with alcohol
can result in cracking at a later date.
Use only alcohol to clean the focusing screen.
After completing a repair, always coat the lens mount
very lightly with grease to make lens mounting
smoother and prevent stick.Part Numbers
All Bronica parts are assigned an 6-digit part number.
The last digit in the 8-digit part number ranges from
© to 8 and indicates the sequence of part changes.
(excluding such parts as screws, washers and E-rings).
Information concerning last digit changes will be
provided as necessary.
The part numbers used exclusively for the ETRSi are as
follows:
Individual body parts 0301{ If Jf ]0-
Body part assemblies 0319 If If 10-

Reassembly notes
o Reassembly is possible by
reversing the disassembly
procedure but reassemble in
sequence while checking for
smooth operation of all links.
o When removing and then
reinstalling the brake lever
shaft, hold the shaft with a
phillips screwdriver from the
operating link side to prevent
rotation.
© Coat the rotating shaft part of
the link lightly with oil after
reassembly.
 
Oil: clock oil (Squalol L-3)

Decsription of the brake svstem
When the operating link starts to rotate
when the S. release button is pressed in
status (a) before release, the operation
of the link applies the brake.
At the mirror up position (b), the link
operation begins to assist the rotation
of the operating ring and force (c) is
required to release the shutter even
without the inertia of the operating ring.CETRS i)
