My typewriter space bar/key gets stuck down

When I press my typewriter's space bar, it gets stuck down, and I have to manually pull it back up again. All the other keys work just fine. I got it for Christmas, an electric Smith-Corona Coronet Super 12. I tried cleaning it a bit, but I am not really sure where to start.

SOURCE: Need owners manual:

I have been unable to find a site where you can download a Smith Corona typewriter manual. However, you can try going to Will Repair Service. They carry manuals of every Smith Corona typewriter ever made, and you should be able to find a manual for your particular typewriter there. I find them to be a very helpful and trustworthy typewriter shop.

YES, SMITH CORONA DOES STILL EXIST!

Best of luck to you! :-)

I have a Smith-Corona Super Correct electric typewriter and the spacebar is stuck on the downward position.

Some of these have a leaf spring that either twist to the side or breaks. Usually there is a spring that pulls that space bar back up.

Use your space bar to move carrier to desired location, hold down Alt key button on bottom left (next to space bar) and press the number 5 numeric key on top row. That should set your right margin.

My lexmark typewriter space bar will not work and the phrase light is stuck on

The phrase light is also the single space. If only the space bar doesn't workyou may have a bad keyboard or something under the space bar that is in the way.

When we press any button (eg. space bar, return, any of the letters or numbers to type anything), the typewriter just makes a beeping sound, and won't move or do anything. How do we get it to work again?

Try reinstalling the printwheel, Cheek to see if any keys are stuck down. On the R. side of the R. side is the switch for forms insertion they do break. remove one of the wires.

I lost the manual for my sx-4000. How do I release the margins.

  1. Press "return" key to left margin.
  2. Press "margin release" key once.
  3. Backspace to where you want the left margin
  4. Press "Margin left" key.
For right margin, space bar to where it is, press margin release, space bar to where you want it, press "margin right" key.
