Just for the benefit of the archives, I found that the Saunders Cable Network brand cable with adjustable throw works fine with this lens.

I have a 10" Wide-Field Ektar with the same shutter. It's self-cocking, hence the need for a cable-release with a long plunger and no focusing lever. Use "T" for focusing. If the shutter hasn't had a CLA for a while, you might send it in. The shutter throw seems to get longer with use, and it occasionally needs to be adjusted.
The flash sync has an "off" setting, because you might conceivably be using flashbulbs and just setting the shutter to "T" for focusing or maybe making a multiple-exposure with flash for part of the shot and no flash for part of the shot, and it's convenient just to be able to turn the sync off.
