[GreenKeys] ASR33 distributor clutch stuck

[Wayne Durkee]

Bob,


If there is no keyboard attached you can slide the H plate holder in the right front of the printer all the way back and this will stop the distributor clutch from tripping.  If you are going to use it as a receive only machine, that is the proper way to disable it.  Make sure to latch the clutch by giving a slight push on the distributor rotor towards the rear to latch the clutch.  


A better way might be to place a small stick under it on the inside.  This would be the way to do it if you plan on installing it in a complete 33.   Then you would only need a slight adjustment of the H plate to keyboard when you install it.  


See pic with temp measure and red arrow points to screw to loosen if you want to disable the clutch more permanent.


Pic is on a junker 33, so no laughing!


73,


Wayne
