General

Instructions

s.m.

01

The

following

instructions

for

typewriter

mechanics

have

been

written

with

the

object

not

only

to

supply

high

grade

typewriters,

but

also

to

give

all

servicemen

adequate

instructions

for

the

app~opriate

maintenance

and

servicing

of

our

machines.

Care

has

been

taken

to

give

a

clear

description

of

all

operations

which

are

essential

and

which

may

occur

in

maintenance

and

repair

work.

Every

mechanic,

and

especially

every

workshop

manager

should

thorQughly

familiarize

himself

with

these

instructions,

taking

into

special

consi-

deration

the

following

hints:

a)

Principally,

repair

and

maintenance

work

should

be

done

exclusively

by

trained

servicemen,

according

to

these

instructions.

b)

machines

should

be

taken

apart

only

as

far

as

it

is

necessary

for

making

the

necessary

repair.

c)

On

the

occasion

of

a

repair

it

is

advisable

tp

adapt

the

machine

to

the

latest

design

by

providing

it

with

the

new

parts

or

units

which

are

essential

for

the

perfect

performance

of

the

entire

mechanism.

d)

After

repair

the

machine

should

be

checked

according

to

Service

manual

Sheets

Nos.

s.m.

600-1.

e)

New

typewriters

should

be

thoroughly

checked,

and

possible

damages

incurred

in

transit

should

be

repaired

before

delivery

is

made

to

the

customer.

f;

g)

When

handing

over

a

machine

to

the

customer,

the

typist

should

be

made

thoroughly

familiar

with

its

operation,

maintenance,

and

clean-

ing

methods

•

It

is

essential

that

the

machines

are

subject

to

regular

service

when

being

used,

i.e.

service

to

be

conducted

at

appropriate

intervals

by

the

ADLER

dealer's

trained

servicemen.

This

Manual

should

not

be

issued

to

subagents

unless

they

have

received

special

training

or

have

attended

a

mechanics'

course.

Delivery

of

Service

manuals

to

the

agents

is

listed

in

the

files.

The

agents

are

responsible

for

returning

these

manuals

in

case

of

a

change

of

subagents

or

for

proper

entry

of

supplementary

sheets

in

the

subagents'

manuals.

Introduction

s.m.

02

In

this

Service

manual

the

groups

which

belong

to

one

another

are

collect-

ed

under

one

register

number.

The main

groups

can

easily

be

found

by

means

of

the

index

(s.m.

05)

and

are

divided

into

subgroups

in

which

the

individual

operations

are

described.

That

means

e.g.

that

all

subgroups

which

belong

to

the

main

group

"escapement"

as

escapement

carrier,

esbape-

ment

wheel,

loose

dog

etc.

will

be

found

under

register

350.

On

the

sheets

403

and

503

faulty

typing

and

some

faulty

actions

are

de-

scribed

as

well

as

their

cause

and

elimination.

By

the

delivery

of

supplementary

sheets

the

Service

manual

will

always

be

kept

up

to

date

and

we

ask

you

to

file

these

sheets

into

the

referring

register.

Observe

that

the

sheet

number

remains

unchanged

but

will

be

completed

by a

letter

Training

of

s.m.

□ 3

To

promote

the

training

of

mechanics

for

our

ADLER

Typewriters

and

Office

'

machines,

courses

are

continually

held

at

the

ADLERWERKE.

Besides

the

neces$ary

theoretical

information

these

courses

chiefly

provide

practical

traininq.

An

ordinary

course

for

the

ADLER

Standard

SPECIAL

Typewriter

takes

5

days.

To

obtain

an

appointment

as

an

ADLER

agent

at

least

one

mechanic

must

have

attended

one

of

our

training

courses.

It

is

also

important

that

the

ti

mechanic

trained

in

these

courses

is

capable

of

training

other

mechanics.

Special

agreements

will

be made

with

foreign

agencies.

moreover,

it

is

advisable

to

have

several

mechanics

attend

the

courses

-

,

depending

on

the

size

of

the

sales

area

-

and

to

arrange

for

short

repet-

ition

courses

at

appropriate

intervals.

The

training

enables

the

mechanics

to

expertly

maintain

the

machines,

to

obviate

cu·stomers'

complaints,

and

to

keep

each

machine

in

proper

working

condition.

Attendance

at

these

courses

is

therefore

the

best

service

an

agent

ca~

render

to

himself

and

to

his

customers.

Subagents

who

are

left

to

themselves

and

who

often

can

hardly

entertain

relations

with

the

main

agency,

are

also

kindly

invited

to

attend

these

courses

or

those

which

are

held

by

the

main

agencies.

Arrangements

for

attendance

can

be made

at

any

time;

the

beginning

of

courses

will

be

fixed

by

ADLERWERKE.
