CORONA 3 - Line Lock Function; Typing on Ruled Lines; Line Spacing Adjustment

How to
Use
Corona
The
left
edge
of Margin
Stop should
be
fixed
on
the number
desired.
For
example:
if you wish
to
fix
the left
margin
at the
point
20
on
the
scale,
set
left adjustable
stop
with
its left
edge
on
20.
When the
Right
Margin
Stop is set on
a
given number,
for
example
60,
the
carriage
will
lock
on
61,
after
printing
on
60.
Should
it be necessary
to
write
a
few more
letters
to complete
a
word which
cannot
be
divided,
touch
the Line
Lock
Release
Lever
and the carriage
will
proceed
to
the
end of
scale,
if Paper Finger
is
not
set in
too
far.
Line
Lock
Another
feature
of Corona
is
the
positive
Line
Lock. By
means of
this
simple
device the
type bars
are
automatically
locked
when
the end
of a line
is reached;
—
thus
preventing
the very annoy-
ing piling
of
letters
at the end
of
a line.
As
a
warning
that
you
are
approaching
the end of
a
line
the
bell
rings
eight
spaces before
the carriage
stops—after which,
upon
pressing
the
Line Lock
Release
Lever the carriage
will
proceed
to the
end of
the scale
as
previously
explained.
Writing
on
Ruled
Lines
The Platen Release
is at the
left
end of the
carriage.
When
it
is desired
to
write
on ruled lines,
fill in blanks,
etc.,
raise this
release. The Platen
may then be turned
freely
without
regard
to
regular spacing.
(See
Inserting
Paper.)
Spacing
Between
Lines
To
space between lines, press back
the
Line
Space Lever with
thumb,
as far
as it
will go.
Time
will
be
saved
if
this operation
is
performed simultaneously
with the return
of
carriage to
the head
of
a
new line.
Distance between lines
is
regulated
by
means
of the Line Space
Adjuster. Turn the Adjuster back for
double space and forward
for single space.

irregular spacing
