Originally posted by Na Horuk This behaviour might be different from Takumars, as it was intended for other cameras (I dunno, I don't have any Takumars to compare it to), but that's how my copy works.
The "Electric" variant of the CZJ Flektogon 35/2.4 has three fat pins that that will contact the body mount face when adapted and one small pin that may also do so (depending on the adapter). I did a Google image search and found one example where all four had been non-artfully removed. I don't know if that is your lens (the Flek 35 had many variants in at least two different mounts spanning over three decades), but if it is, none of those pins are the same as the interlock pin found on S-M-C and SMC Takumars.
S-M-C Takumar from the back.
Most M42 lenses (including Super Taks) have the actuator pin (top of mount threads), but only the S-M-C and SMC Takumars have the smaller interlock pin (red arrow). When used with a K-mount adapter, the actuator pin is always inboard of the M42 mount opening and the interlock pin is always inboard of the K-mount opening.
