[GreenKeys] Modems, CCU's and Tractor feed issues

[Mike Douglas]

John,

I have attached a page that has an illustration of the form feed (form out) function bar. This illustration shows you which vertical tabs should still be in place. Tabs can be manually bent/broken off to form the desired code pattern, so it's quite possible yours has been broken off.

Mike, I think I found it.
I found an extra page to my documentation showing additional parts and I was
able to clue in that the Form Out Function Lever (bleow #14 on the function
casting) was being triggered for both the form feed and the comma but
noghing else. We know that the code
 bars are functioning properly so I
checked the linkage between and found this. (it's hard to describe so here's
an image
(http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a166/ballsandy/Computer%20related/IMG_489
3.jpg)). Bars 13 and 14 look like there's tabs that broke off sometime in
the past and someone attached an additional piece of metal to repalce the
missing pins and now they too have broken off (is there that much stress on
the bars?) The one missing on 13 doesn't seem to affect anything however on
14 it allows the bar to engage and activate the form feed on a comma. Does
this look and sound correct? I can probably fabricate another piece of metal
to repair the pin but how much work is needed to remove function bars out of
the
 teletype?
