Thank you! I just got this jem this week at an antique store. The typewriter and case is in beautiful condition. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It is incredibly valuable. Thank you so much.
This was an awesome video! I just picked up an SM9 and didn't know about some of the features, particularly with the line drawing and tab set mechanisms.
The fact is... above all else, your videos significantly influenced my decision to purchase a beautiful 1966 Olympia SM-9. After getting it home, I fine-tuned the tolerances of the carriage rail, as the rollers inside were a little loose (allowing for up-and-down play of the carriage), so I readjusted the screws on both ends of the front rail, allowing for it to work perfectly, and no longer skip a space every so often. Thanks for helping me with my decision to buy this typewriter, as it is a truly marvelous machine, and I love every aspect of it! I will continue to watch your videos, as yours is definitely the "go-to" channel on TH-cam! --Paul
Thank you! I just a bought the SM9 Olympia a few weeks ago and I was happy to see all the information you explained in this video. I especially liked you showing the tension lever makes hitting the keys so much easier and making typing much more fun!
I know you recommend models before 1970. I just found a 1972 in great shape for a good price. Worth it? Can you specify some of the differences? THANKS, this is so helpful and you helped me in your top 10 video to find my way to this Olympia Sm9 in the first place. I'm so excited.
I followed this but my lettern are not flying high enough to touch the paper. So I can’t write anything. Is there a way to readjust this so it works again? 🫣

Thank you for very kindly offering the Olympia SM9 operating instructions as a pdf, which I downloaded.
Nice

@@MrMrsVintageTypewriterscan you do a video on a Remington Performer Typewriter? What ribbon do I need for that typewriter?
As I own both an Olympia SM-8 and an Olympia SM-9, this video is much appreciated! 😉👍
Great choice of typewriters. Glad to know it was helpful .
This is what i needed. Picked it up in great shape with case at an auction.
Nice 👍🏼
Amazing video. Thank you!

Glad you like them!
Thank you! Exactly what I needed.
Glad to know that
Great job! Thanks for perfect explanation. What an elegant metal composition :o
My pleasure!
Excellent tutorial video, as always. Thank you for making it!
Would you consider making a tutorial video for the Olivetti Studio 44 typewriter?
Hi. Nearly like Lettera 32
What about the lever on the left that has +/- icon?
Is it at 6:26 ?

Later models had the plastic main springs and tab setting wasn’t well made. It was so fragile.
I have the same typewriter. But no case. Would love to get a case for it.
check ebay or facebook groups.
Why? Like, should we leave it in the case when not in use??

Hello
Means that it needs repair.
Sorry 😔
