Just got an Anneversary Speed. The focal plane worked for the first few times, but when I moved the slide selector up, instead of using the normal release, it jammed and neither work now. How do I fix it? Thanks in advance for your generous assistance.

Correction, the camera is a side mounted rangefinder Pacemaker Speed.

Push in on the selector to change from front to rear; rear to trip should slide easily and spring back to rear position once tripped. Check the curtain as it may have caught on something.
