Leica R7 top plate remove

[Glere]

Hi! I have to disassembly the top plate of my Leica R7 for cleaning contacts (selector mode not recognize all the modes as it should). The ASA dial it's not a problem but the program dial and wind advance lever are quite difficult. 
I've seen some Minolta's XD disassembly videos but all of them had an indentation for tools on the shutter dial.
If anyone can show me or tell me how to put this 2 things apart..

Thank you very much.

Hi Davide!

 

The shutter dial stays on, when the cover gets removed.

 

Here you can see, how the R7 looks opened.

Good luck,

 

Torsten
