Found a lovely three lens kit at the Newspace Gallery Swap Meet last weekend 
  (Portland, Oregon April and October great swap meet) 

Does anyone out there have any experience mating the winder to the camera? 
Or releasing the wound spring? I see how the mechanics work, the daisy wheel 
to engage the pins on the baseplate?but what is behind the slide down cover 
at the end and what purpose does the lever on the bottom of the winder 
serve? Can git er on  can?t git er to go 

Camera releases fine w/o motor

thanks


Mark
