Good work, Pablo. I never did get mine finished because I kind of gave up on trying to get the helical loose. Worst Agfa I've ever worked on for that problem. Anyway, your rangefinder issue is a sticky control lever, and since the Ansco Super Memar body is similar I have a set of photos for you to reference showing the top removal and rangefinder cleaning. It's at https://flic.kr/s/aHsjCbMYma

Good luck! If you can take the lens and shutter apart for cleaning, then removing the top should be a breeze.

Chris Sherlock made a video about that dreaded helicoid stuck in the camera


I'm still unable to open the top and basically put the camera back in the shelf

Don't know if I even can recall what box I put all the loose parts in. One of them took a tumble off the workbench and scattered everything into the carpet. Hopefully it wasn't for the Super Solinette.
