Normal (left-aligned) tabs are set by moving the carrierto the position at which

atab is required and pressingthe

[T SET]

key. To use the tab stop, pressthe

[TAB]

key, and the carrier will move to the tab position automatically.

Notes:

1. When atab is to be set in the same position as a decimal tab (see below), the

decimal tab in that position will be changed to a normal tab when the

[T SET]

key is pressed.

2.

Tab positions are set according to the absolute position of the carrier (in units

of 1/60 in.) based on the left edge, so they do not change even when the

margins or pitch have been changed.

3. A maximum of 24 tabs, including decimal tabs, can be set on your typewriter.
