First - Take machine out of carrying

case.

Lift up line space lever (6) and move

carriage lock lever (3) to the rear, thusreleasing the carriage. Lift off frontcover and rem

ove cardboard from type

bar segment. Rem

ove tape band fromright-hand platen knob (17)and unhookfrom

left-hand platen knob (5). Remove

the four plastic pins (left and right)inserted between the guide rails, forprotection during transport.

Press down one of the shift keys (11 I 24)and take out both plastic strips (rightand left) below the guide rails. W

henrepl,acing the m

achine cover make sure

that the two securing pins snap intothe two rubber-lined holes in the fram

e.

The machine is now ready for use. You

may wish to place a felt pad under the

machine to enhance its quiet operation.

Ribbon control(SF Deluxe only)W

ith a two-colored ribbon, set theribbon control switch (22) for'black' inthe upperm

ost position or for 'red' inthe lower position. The center position'white' is for cutting stencils. W

hen theupper half of a single-color ribbon isworn, reverse the ribbon spools for useof the lower part of the ribbon. Ribbonadvance and return are autom

atic.

lnserling the paperM

ove the carriage to the center posi-tion. Raise the paper support (13) byhand. O

n the 'SF Deluxe' the papersupport is raised autom

atically by de-pressing the release button (15). lnsertthe paper between the platen and them

argin scale and adjust it to the re-quired height by turning the platenknob (5/17). To adjust the paper or toinsert several sheets, pull the paperrelease lever (16) forward.

Setting the margin

The beginning and end of the typingline can be set by adjusting the twom

argin stops (2/14) at the rear of thecarriage. Depress both and slide themto the required position. The twopointers on the m

argin scale (1) indi-cate the setting.

Line setting and spacingSet the space between the lines bym

eans of the line space control (4):rear line for singie-spacing, center linefor one and a half spacing, front linefor double-spacing. Slight pressure onthe line space lever (6) pushes thecarriage along to the right and bringsthe paper into position for typing onthe next line.

Shilt keyTo type capital letters or any of thecharacters on the upper portion of thekey tops depress either one of the twoshift keys (11124). By depressing theshift lock (10) the type segm

ent can beretained in this position and releasedagain by depressing either of the twoshift keys.

SpacingO

n depressing and releasing the spacebar (12) the carriage will m

ove onespace, i. e., the width of one letter.

Accent key (where fitted)The accent key (21) is a so-called'dead'keywhich does not operate the carriagem

echanism. Accents m

ust thereforealways be depressed before the leiterthat requires the accent; the i (circum

-flex) is m

ade up from the i (acute)

and the i (grave) accents.M

argin releaseThe ringing of a bell indicates that afew m

ore spaces are available beforethe end of the line. O

n reaching theend of the line the carriage will stop.To continue the line beyond the m

arginstop, or to start typing before the setstarting point, depress the m

arginrelease (9).

Disentangling the type barsThe m

argin release (9) also serves todisentangle any type bars which m

ayhave becom

e jamm

ed. By depressingthe m

argin release the type bars willreturn to their norm

al position.

Bac* spacerW

hen depressing the back space key(23) the carriage m

oves back onespace, i. e., the width of one letter.

Platen releaseThe line space control (4) also acts asplaten release.W

hen set at its rearmost

position (.), free wheeling of the platenoccurs and allows unlim

ited variationsof line spacings.

For example, when typing printed

forms or for subsequent typing on a

sheet already removed from

the ma-

chine.

Carriage releaseG

rip the right-hand platen knob (17)with your right hand and depress thecarriage release lever (18) with yourthum

b. This allows the carriage to bem

oved freely in both directions.

Drawing lineslnsert the point of a pencil in thenotch of the alignm

ent guide (8). Drawhorizontal lines by m

oving the carriageleft and right with the carriage release(18) depressed, and vertical lines byturning the platen upward or down-ward after operating the platenrelease (4).

Touch adjuster - DeLuxe onlyFirst rem

ove the machine cover. By

moving the lever of the touch adjuster

(25) the tension of the keys may be

adjusted to suit the individual touch.The m

aximum

pressure is obtainedwhen the touch adjuster is set to (+)M

inimum

pressure is obtained when itis set to (-).

ErasingTurn the platen until the portion of thepaper, on which the error has beenm

ade, lies on the paper deflector (19).M

ove the carriage to the side so thatno eraser dust falls into the m

achine.The use of an eraser shield is recom

-m

ended.

CorrectingDo not type om

itted letters.in betweenthe others but use the correcting spacebar (12). Erase the incorrect word andm

ove the carriage back to the last letterof the preceding word. Tap the spacebar once - depress again, this tim

eholding it down and type the first letterof the word to be re-typed. Release thespace bar. Type the next letter withthe space bar held down and continuein this m

anner until the word has beencorrectly written.

fhe bst typewri-ter(wrong)

To insert less characters where therewere previously m

ore, move the car-

riage back to the last character of thepreceding word, tap the space bartwice and proceed as above.

Margin alignm

entFor the typing of publicity and adver-tising m

aterial, circulars etc. whichrequire a straight right-hand m

argin,to give it a printed look, a rough draftof the work should first be typed inorder to calculate the num

ber of lettersthat require levelling each tim

e. Theshortest line of the draft is taken as thestandard, and a vertical line is drawnat the end of this. The letters on theother lines which are outside this lim

itm

ust be brought within it by operatingthe.correcting space bar, while shorterlines m

ay be extended.

lnsertions are made by typing the word

which is to be compensated for, in the

following manner: depress space bar

- type - release space bar - type -release space bar etc.

After typing the last letter, depress thespace bar once m

ore and continuetyping.

To lengthen a line proceed as follows.After typing the last letter of a word,depress the space bar, release it anddepress again. Type the first letter ofthe next word and release the spacebar, depress space bar, type a letteretc. After typing the last letter releasespace bar and tap it twice - thencontinue typing the next word.

Cleaning

lf the machirre is in constant use it

should be dusted every morning w

itha clean brush. C

lean the types fromtim

e to time w

ith a type-cleaning brush,a sheet of paper having been placedunderneath the type bars. lf a plastictype cleaner is used, this should bekneaded before use to m

ake it more

pliable. Never clean types w

ith a metal

object; if necessary, use a wooden

spill. The platen may be cleaned oc-

casionally with m

ethylated spirit only -never w

ith gasoline. All moving and

sliding parts may be oiled periodically

with typew

riter oil which is free from

acid. Segment, line space w

heel, typebars and type guide should never beoiled. ln the event of any dam

age, yourtypew

riter should be repaired by anauthorized typew

riter mechanic.
