DECIMAL TABULATOR
(Models DT33 and BK33)
The lowest key row of the above models has two
functions viz. writing and decimal tabulating. For
writing, keys are pressed down in the usual way,
while for tabulating, the same keys are pushed in
horizontally.
The various
digit
positions
are
indicated on the space bar immediately below
the respective keys. The decimal tabulating keys
are operated by both thumbs without your hands
leaving the initial position of the ten-finger-system.
To set tabulator stops, guide carriage to desired point
of column where decimal point is wanted; draw
tabulator lever " + " toward you. Any desired stop
can be attained this way. If the amount of
10,457.50
is to be typed, push key with indication " y "
as it refers to 10 THOUSAND. According to the
standard USA 10 key tab the decimal tabulator is
arranged as follows:
1

Do not use keys marked "," for tabulating, as they
are inactive.
On request the decimal tabulator can be equipped
with the compact version, i.e. digits up to 100 mil
lion. This is especially for typing larger amounts
and for sums which do not require a space after
each third figure. That way the above amount
would read as follows:
10457.50
The decimal tabulator with the compact version is
arranged as shown below:

The overpassing key marked by an arrow allows
free passing of carriage in spite of any set stops
without cancelling them. This key is found at place
of the tabulator key (No. 22).
CHANGING RIBBONS
Wind old ribbon on one spool. Move brake levers
out (fig. 1) and remove spools from machine. Fasten
free end of new ribbon to empty spool. Move
brake levers out again and fit spools back on
spindles, taking care, that locator pin fits into one
of the guide holes in each spool (fig. 1).

Every typewriter needs regular care, especially
if it is used daily. Your typewriter is quickly and
easily looked after; always dust your machine
before using it and clean the easily accessible
inner parts with a soft brush.
The type needs special attention as they get
clogged with ink, ribbon fibres as well as dust.
Therefore they should be cleaned regulary with
the stiff brush furnished with your machine.
Special type cleaning material is also useful for
this purpose.
It is further advisable to wipe the platen with
a sott flannel clipped in alcohol.
When erasing, move carriage to the extreme
left or right so that no erasure dirt will fall into
the machine.
In case your line indicators (plastic) have be
come dirty, they can easily be cleaned with a
dry leather rag or, if necessary, with a soft
flannel dipped in alcohol. Other solutions than
this should not be used at all.
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR SALES AGENCY
WHEN SPECIAL SERVICE IS REQUIRED.
