[GreenKeys] Model 26 feed issues - carriage shifting

[Zach Zarzycki]

There is definitely a detent however I'm a little nervous to start
messing with the mechanical side of this. I'm attached the
schematic/microfiche that I have showing the 26A's detent. The spring
2386 is definitely there, and the one below it not numbered is also
there. It is possible that 2386 has become fatigued, however the one
not labeled is definitely not. I'm not sure if that could cause the
issue or not. 2386 pulls down a tooth into the gear that keeps the
platen in position. When you pull the lf pawl arm, the spring that is
NOT 2386 is very tight.
