[GreenKeys] Teleprinter part wanted, can you help?

[Simon Claessen]

Shure.

I have fixed both the flexo spd and the president in out collection at 
hack42.nl some problems arise when the machine has not been standing on 
its feet but direct on its bottom. als there is no plate there, the mass 
of the machine is pressing on the selector mechanism connected to the 
power roller. if the alignment of that section is off, the hole machine 
misbehaves. locking up on punching, not typing characters from tape, etc.
also be carefull: if there is no transformer next to the motor, your 
machine is working directly off rectified mains. not nice to touch... :-)

more questions, mail me OL as this list for the teletypes and creed only.
