As you learned earlier, when the typewriter is switched ON, the carrier nnoves
automatically to the far left and then 10 spaces to the right. This is the preset left margin
in 10 pitch.
Preset margins
The preset left margin will vary as will the right margin depending on the typing pitch as
shown in the following table .
Pitch Left margin Right margin
10 10 75

Margin release
The print carrierwill normally not move outside the margins. However, on occasion, you
may wish to type outside the margins. It will also be necessary to move the carrier past
the margins if you want to set margins outside the ones currently set.
To move to the left of the left margin, use the [BKSP] key to reach the left margin, press
the [M REL] key and then continue to press the [BKSP] key to where you wish to begin
typing.
To move past the right margin, press the [M REL] key when the margin is reached, then
continue typing.
Setting margins
If you do not wish to use the standard margins, you can set your own margins very easily.
