CORONA 3 - Putting Machine in Case

How
to
Use
Corona
In
but few
machines is it
possible
to
renew the
ribbon
with as
little trouble
as is
the
case
with Corona. However,
there are
one
or
two points that should be
remembered.
1. Never bend the vibrator.
2.
Note carefully the
manner in
which the ribbon
is
carried to
the back
of
the
right-hand
spool
and to
the
front
of the
left one
—
thus
permitting
both spools to wind clockwise.
Note also, that
ribbon passes through
Vibrator
in such a
way
as to
cover the
diagonal
slots through which it has
been
inserted.
Manifolding
Corona has a
powerful
stroke which enables
the operator to
do
heavy
manifolding without
pounding.
A
medium
weight
carbon is
recommended
"For general
purposes
where
only one
or two
copies
are desired
;
but at
times a
large
number
are
required and
in such cases, a
light weight
carbon and
onion
skin
paper
should be
used.
For
instructions
regarding the
proper way to
insert
a
number
of
carbons
in
machine,
see
"Inserting Paper."
Oiling
The
parts to
be
oiled
are
clearly indicated in

touch
parts
with

then wipe

superfluous

Cleaning
It
is
well
to
remember
that
if
a
typewriter
is
kept
clean it
it
much
less
liable
to
get
out
of
repair
than if
dirt is
allowed to
collect
and
work
into
the
wearing
parts.
