KOMET / RESTORATION PROCEDURE
The KOMET came dirty, blocked and obvious tortured:
Keys were pressed in and levers bent under the keyboard.
"1stAID": KEYS removed & LEVERS re-bent; CLEANED;
Missing SPRINGS replaced & weak springs exchanged;
... & OILED ...
... TOP & BOTTOM ...
A broken RESET-SPRING in the middle INSIDE the keyboard
is replaced by a new one OUTSIDE ...
... Adjusting the INPUT-DISPLAYS are difficult!
Suggestion: Averaged when set to 555,555.55
|
Washing the keys with warm water had a B A D E F F E C T: The keys expanded a "clowdy" surface ... But lucky: It could be filed away and now the keys are sealed with shoeshine. |

===========================================================================
The KOMET's design is questionable! It is a miss-match of "brute-force" and
fragile sensors. Whenever a LOCKING happens, it results in some damage and
wrong behaviour - E.G.: Input "00000000" ==???==>> Adding "010000010" ...
... Solved (06/2016) after hours of frustrating experiments in fine-tuning.
