Unfortunately the hook maintaining the battery of my Kr was broken.
I have found a spare part but I don't know how to replace it. I think I have to dismantle the front face but how? And after?
The hook is between the battery and the lens.
Can somebody help me?
Thank You!

You can always buy the service manual and parts list. The service manual should have disassembly instructions and the parts list an exploded diagram.

With the K-r it is the very same as with the K-30/50/500/K-S2 and K-70:

Shipping is cheap, the price great as is the quality.
If the seller does not offer it right then when you look, just contact him!
