[GreenKeys] TT-7/FG Restoration in Progress

[William Wuttke]

 Well, I gave the type basket an extra wiggle or two and it now moves the way it is
supposed to. 50+ years of storage in a garage takes its toll. Progress.....

 So far, the motor runs (and turns on/off with the switch), the pulling selector magnets read 230 ohms (OK),
and I have cleaned the right side of the base. However, I have tried to pull the type basket (following 138B
instructions), but it won't move. It wiggles ever so slightly along the carriage track.
Something is frozen - where to look? Ribbon shafts are also frozen.

Thanks,
Bill
