[GreenKeys] ID this perf

[Paul Birkel]

I have a unit marked TT-45/FG with both of those levers.  I presume that
it's actually a M14-ROTR.  It appears similar to the one in the last photo
at: http://www.baudot.net/teletype/M19.htm  (the unit up on the
accessory-shelf to the left).

 

Although the external casing of mine is quite different that the photos from
Pete (mine is generally styled after the M15, just smaller; even has a
transparent panel in the lift-open-and-swing-backwards front cover) the
internal mechanism looks to be identical that that in Pete's photos,
including the same exit chute.

 

On mine the left lever disengages the pawl, allowing the tape to be
_manually_ moved backwards (thus rightwards).

 

The right lever lifts the wire cage that holds the ribbon adjacent to the
tape; it rotates the cage 60" clockwise, thus moving the ribbon up-n-away
from the tape, exposing to visual inspection the point where the printing
takes place.

 

I'm looking forward to getting it back into service :->.

Wondering about the mechanism. There are two push down levers at the very
front, right above the serial number 30444. Is that a manual "one character
back function" ?  Don't have these levers on both of my 14 reperf's.

Finally, something not off topic!

 

Looks like a M14 reperf to me.
