Can you check with whoever you got the lens from as to what mount it has? Never heard of Kimunor, but it most likely is a mirror (aka "reflex") lens with the "universal" T-mount. If so, you need the T-mount for Minolta Maxxum (example here.) To use this lens with your Maxxum 3, you'll have to cancel the shutter release lock. If the camera thinks there is no lens, or a non-compatible lens mounted, it will not allow the shutter to release. See p. 54 of the user manual for disabling the lock:
