G

It is

not advisable to

oil

the

machine

too

frequently

as

this

tends

to

collect dust and actually does more harm than good.

We suggest

that you take your machine at least once a year to an Imperial Agent

or

Service

Depot

for

it

to

be

thoroughly

cleaned

and

oiled.

sure

that

the

slsz-L’ey

is

unlocked.

When

replacing

cover,

tilt

lid slightly back, drop front, and the Catch will snap fast.
