[GreenKeys] 33 ASR Keyboard not tripping the distributor

[Jon Penner]

I just attached the picture to my email like I will do with this one to show the front of the printer.
Also, Wayne advised to add a tiny amount of oil on the neoprene bearing that pivots up and down on a shaft as indicated in my previous attachment. That did the trick and the keyboard is now tripping the distributor so I'm on to the next problem which is getting all of the characters to print correctly. They punch ok, but the numbers come out as if they are missing a bit. I can get the A line on the keyboard to print correctly if I have the machine off and manually cycle through a keystroke, at full motor speed I get Q for A (as I do for the number 1).
Here is a pic of the front that shows a couple springs, maybe the one you had in mind.
Thanks!

Is there a spring on the front of the keyboard just to the left of the lever
shown in your? If not, that is your problem. I would attach a photo, but do
not know how. Maybe someone could email me how to add attachments.
