The easiest way is just to make a temporary mark on tape where the reset 
switch is, where the screw head/holes are in the lens and pretend to mount 
the lens. I only have one lens, a Vivitar S1 35-85 (early model) and an older 
Adaptall mount that have this problem.  No problems with any of the Zuikos, 
however.l
