There is an adjustment screw in the slider that pushes the paddle down on
the lens shutter. You can use this to adjust the travel of the paddle. On my
Baby the paddle was not at a true right angle to the shutter, a quick tweak
with some wire nose pliers fixed that little problem.
Maybe all you need to do is adjust the travel of the paddle.

Subject: [pure-silver] Followup 2x3 Speed Graphic Question
I have pretty much finished cleaning, rehabbing, and upgrading the 2x3 Speed
I bought several weeks ago.
However, I have one vexing problem: When I use a cable release, it does not
reliably fire the shutter (A Kodak Supermatic). This is not a shutter
problem, it is a "The force of the cable release is not being transmitted to
the shutter release lever" problem. I fiddled with the adjustment on the
cable release assembly on the front standard.
This made it better, but not perfect.
If I remove the lens, the shutter release mechanism on the front standard
(as well as the push button release on the body) exhibit full travel. But
if I push up slightly on plunger that releases the shutter (at the front
standard), that bit of resistance prevents the full range of motion for
shutter release.
Subjectively, the shutter release lever on the lens does not feel
particularly hard to push, but it's enough to prevent the full downward
range of motion of the shutter release plunger mounted on the front
standard.
Is this a well known problem? Is there a fix?
