This is my first film camera but I don't know how to make its shutter cocked.

Also, because it seems that it doesn't have film advance lever I don't know how to make the film forward.

If someone can share an English manual, I'll really appreciate it!!

Hi Andrea. Unfortunately I haven't see an English manual for this camera, but this camera is a film cartridge to film cartridge camera with no rewind, once you're doing with the roll you just take the intake cartridge out. There's just one knob which is the advance. The shutter is cocked with a little lever located on the lens and the shutter release is right under the cocking lever also on the lens. That's pretty much it.

Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Vlad
