But I can live with that.<br />If you'd like to, you may turn the word verification off via Dashboard-Settings (or Options?)-Comments-Third-to-last-point.<br />And I can say, I have never received any spam up to now, with anyone able to comment.maschinengeschriebenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955578932937697125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897251519490477449.post-37933019482457905512011-10-22T20:31:04.923-05:002011-10-22T20:31:04.923-05:00Thanks for the instructions!

I had used the technique you mentioned and the right margin would not engage properly then the left would click in where the right was supposed to be. This is one part of the machine I did not open and lubricate.<br /><br />Sorry about the word verification. I don't think there is any way to turn it off. I suppose it keeps out computer generated spam.Dwayne F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07032059161503386028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897251519490477449.post-35446975087906740822011-10-22T13:53:52.395-05:002011-10-22T13:53:52.395-05:00I just lost my comment.

Thank you.<br /><br />Okay, there's a silver lever at both ends of the carriage, just under the "carriage free knob". <br /><br />To set a margin more to the middle of the carriage than the existing margin,<br />I. Move the "typing point" to the intended margin point.<br />II. Pull the lever (left for left margin, right for right).<br /><br />To do the opposite,<br />I. Move "typing point" to about the middle<br />II. Pull lever and keep pulled until you reach your intended margin point, then leave the lever.<br /><br />Everything clear? It sound more complicated than it is, believe me.maschinengeschriebenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01955578932937697125noreply@blogger.com
