[GreenKeys] KSR-33 Parts needed...

[Don Robert House]

Dave,

Every year or two I mention this to the list...

If you have a M32 or M33 of any type (except maybe the TAM)
There is a hole in the casting at the bottom of the typing unit.
There is also a matching hole in the aluminum or cast base.
The purpose of these holes is for a SHIPPING SCREW.

The screw should be in for shipping but taken out to run.
If the screw is left in the machine makes a terrible racket and
starts to shake itself apart.

Just my biannual reminder.

Re: This morning's message:

The shaft or rail has been found (p/n 185799)
The platen knob has been found (p/n 181039)
Also, a new dashpot and cup has been found (not mentioned
on the original message but in poor shape).

Still needed:
1) Platen (p/n 185877)
2) Beige lid (fits on top case)  with see through window
which fits over the platen (p/n 181132)

The old gal may shake, rattle and roll again soon after 25
years in a barn!

Thanks,
