    Very clever. I sold my Super-Riter at the latest meeting at Herman’s so I can’t try it either.

    Wow, thank you very much for this piece of info! I just got a 1957 Super-Riter a few days ago and it’s having some carriage issues. This seems to be the only reference to the Fold-A-Matic design on the internet and it just happens to time with me acquiring my machine and allows access to the area I need access to. Thanks for sharing!

    James Grooms has an annotated photo of a machine with the particular screws for the Fold-A-Matic functionality highlighted for those who prefer that over the schematic: https://typewriterdatabase.com/196x-remington-superriter.23240.typewriter
