On the subject of 029 card punches, does anyone out there have maintenance
manuals on the 026 card punch? The homeowner of the place where much of
my collection currently is just rescued an 026 punch from work. It does not
smoke when powered on, but it doesn't appear to feed cards from the hopper
into the punch area properly, and when a card is assisted into the right place,
it doesn't punch.

Thanks for any tips,
