[GreenKeys] 28 KSR from George H

[Keelan Lightfoot]

Pete,

You seem to suffer from an affliction that I also suffer from - acute closeup-picture-itis. It's symptomized by an inability to take 'overall' photos of items with lots of interesting technical bits.

Your bent local linefeed lever can be seen in it's un-bent form as part #151859 on page 23 of this parts manual:

I see that the circlip (#119651) has also gone missing. Given their tendency to fly away at speeds exceeding the speed of sound (you never hear them land), it's probably safe to say that you're going to need a new one. Fortunately, they are quite common.

If I have the chance, I'll try to snap a photo of mine for you tomorrow.
