This is what the Sinar Norma parts look like once cleaned;
Residual "stuff" that once lived in this Sinar Norma at the bottom of the Ultrasonic cleaner in alcohol solvent:
Norma focus pinion mechanism, a remarkable item of precision Swiss design and production.
There are very specific steps to putting a Norma back together, the must be carried out in order (some variation is OK) if this is not done, there will be minor problems to serious damage. Using the proper lubricants is a must.
Once the Sinar Norma mechanisms are properly back together and adjusted properly, the smoothness and precision of the Norma is remarkable in so many ways.
If there is enough interest, I'll post the specific steps and what lubricants are to be used.
