The manufacturer may not have _intended_ that you could take it apart but I am sure you can....... Sometimes, one has to admit that initial damage and subsequent modification are required to make things do what you want them to do. Quite often, in fact. In a dusty climate, equipment that is sealed-for-life yet does not prevent the ingress of particles is no good. It either has to be made properly dustproof or made easy to clean. See if you have any acquaintances who have encountered and overcome a similar problem. > > How do I clean the sucker then? > > Boris > > > mike wilson wrote: > > Boris Liberman wrote: > > > >> Here is a visual proof. > >> > >> http://not.contaxg.com/document.php?id=17066&full=1 > >> > >> Boris > >> > >> P.S.
