Hi Charles. I tried to send this directly but your mail server claims

Oh well.

Hi Charles.

Thanks for the info. I have the original manuals but just not here. I'll
be getting them this week to help with this. I'll look for that release
lever.

As for the read cover, it's actually the small tab that holds it down.
That broke off at the stem. It was part of a piece of very thin metal
that had a spring effect. If you look at the piece of metal that the tab
is connected to you'll see what I mean. The only thing I can think of to
fix it is to either find a replacement (not very likely), glue a small
piece of metal to the springy-thingy so I can affix the tab back onto it,
or make a new one.
