I'm guessing that you want to move the R. margin. Go to the margin press but don't hold the mar rel key space or backspace to desired location, press R. mar key.

SOURCE: Carriage return problem

If it returns with the express key the latching mech. on the rt. side is probably gummy. Take off the case, get some WD40 and spray the mechinism that latches the ret on the rt. side below the platen.

You probably need a keyboard but first try my tip under WW1000.

It sounds as if the spring in the drum under the carriage has broken. Major problem.

SOURCE: While moving, I accidentally bounced my mother's

all i can say is have a go as if not its scrap ,if you can get it apart i would hazard a guess and say that the operating mechanism under the key is damaged in some way or the key is sticking in the keyboard ,Now without having a play its difficult to diagnose and help but iam sure you will sort it out especially as you have another machine for parts

SOURCE: Problem with the line spacing

If all the settings are right and it feeds with the platen knob the plastic gear on the index mitor is probably broken the part is about 25.00 plus installation.

Margins

Most electronic typewriters work the same way to change margin settings. You use the space bar to move to the desired location then press the right margin key. You should hear a beep. If you need to set it farther to the right of the current position, then use the space bar to move the carrier to the current position, once it stops moving then press margin release then space to the new position then press right margin key.
