I just received the top cover for this Ricoh KR10 Super. Now I just need a little guidance as to how to remove the shutter speed dial. Does anyone have any suggestions?

For that matter, there's also the small matter of the film advance lever.

There should be a small screw or screws around the perimeter of the SS dial. Loosen these, making note of the dial setting as you do so. Lift the dial off.

Remove the screw on the underside of the wind lever. Remove the plastic cover. This exposes the metal part of the lever; remove the screw in the center (it might be left-handed threaded).

As you can probably see the ASA dial under the rewind crank is held on by a snap ring.

Glad to hear it. Good work! I like those old Ricoh/Sears models (mine is a Sears KS Super).
