The KSR I have has an adjustable extension of the lid that extends below 
the tear off edge of the glass.. Part No. 15145.  It supports the torn 
edge (for a while).  There is also a mod kit that was installed on top 
of the cover with two grooves that the operator could drag a pencil 
through (across the paper) to tear it off  well above the glass.  (PN 
174458) Paper Tearing  Plate.  This was useful for stripping short 
messages individually.  

All these are moot if you use NCR two ply paper and a paper winder. 
 Tear the top copy and roll the record copy.  

Having the manuals is handy.  I have TeleType Corp manuals only, no 
Mil....  Unfortunately.
