[GreenKeys] Model 28 Paper Feed

[Richard Dillman]

We use a 28ASR at the KSM receive site to copy RTTY being sent from the transmitter site so visitors can see a real Teletype machine in action.  We have a paper winder on the machine generously donated by a list member.  But there's a problem.

As the winder takes up the paper it's displaced slightly to the left (looking at the machine when standing in front of it) so that the paper contacts the left flange of the winder spool and becomes folded and ripped.

The mounting holes in the M28 case and the winder do not provide for any lateral adjustment.  I believe I am routing the paper through the machine correctly.  Does that mean that the typing unit needs to be moved laterally?  Or am I, as usual, missing something obvious?
