[GreenKeys] Model 19 Peforator Problem

[E.]

Wonder if you have some powdered paper gummed up somewhere - maybe on one of the gears as it spins.  Maybe have a look for some cleaning ’n oiling.  Mine will occasionally do something similar at the beginning after not being used for a while.  Pushing down on the paper advance lever (if I remember right) seems to get things moving again.  I’ve always just assumed that things get a bit gummy from the punched paper as it sits (in my case).
