Hello! I'm reaching out to you all in regards to an Olympia Traveller that I recently acquired (no, this isn't my first typewriter). The person from whom I purchased it said that it was in working order--no sticky keys, etc. However, when I tried to type on it, the keys would not strike the page. None of the keys would. In fact, they all stopped at the same place: about midway from their resting position to the page. The keys don't feel "sticky"; instead, they feel like there is some sort of locking mechanism or something that prevents them from extending to the page. Is there any such locking mechanism on this Olympia model? It is not a Deluxe version. I'm not sure what year it is. It doesn't say that it was manufactured in Western Germany, nor does it say that it was made in Yugoslavia, so I'm not sure if it's pre-1971 or post-1971. If there is not some sort of locking mechanism for this unit, what might I do to remedy the situation? Like I said, the keys really feel like they're "locked" as opposed to "sticky," because they rise up from their resting position fine, which is to say that there doesn't seem to be any gunk or grime preventing them from striking the page. Any thoughts/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! I'd also be willing to post some pics, but I'm not sure how to do that here.
