			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had some problem with the front cover and hood on my Asahi Super-Takumar 135mm/3.5 m42-lens. The front &#8220;hull&#8221; or what you might call it, wobbled&#8230; including the filterthreads and the hood. Didn&#8217;t affect the imageproperties of the lens (the glass didn&#8217;t move) but <strong>annoying to use</strong>.</p>
<p>This turned out to be easy&#8230; </p>
<ol>
<li>Unscrew the ring where the lensname is printed. That&#8217;s just a ring screwed down in the filterthreads. Take a round object with smaller diameter then the 49mm filterthreads, cover it with a rubberglove or something that&#8217;s soft but has friction. Press down and unscrew the name-ring.</li>
<li>The front hull of the lens is atteched with three small screws. Tighten the small screws you see down between the hull and the lenses glass.</li>
<li>Reattach the name-ring. Done!</li>
</ol>
<p>Here <strong>some pictures</strong> I took while doing this:</p>
