Lettera 22 - sips and adds spaces on occassion




By jemuen on Apr 18, 2008

" "
Hi,

I have an Olivetti Underwood Lettera 22 that works great except that, in the course of typing, the carriage will "skip" and add a space without the spacebar being hit. It seems almost as if the tab spacing mechanism is engaging, but of course, I'm not sure. Any ideas on fixing this?

Thanks!

JJ

If it skips at the same place or skips every 10 or 12 spaces all the time it is a broken tooth on the escapement wheel or rack. It could be in typing you are lingering on the key causing it to spring back a little ans space over.
