Olivetti 44 return Lever clearance
Hello all! I know these 44 levers tended to scrape over time as they wore down because of the folding mechanism, and you can see evidence of that on the cover in photo 2.
But in photo one and three, you can see that the actual return pivot area (not the arm itself) is very, very close. If that’s unclear, imagine unscrewing the arm and what remains/where the arm screws in would still nearly scape the cover when actuated. What is going on here? Most photos of these machines show much more clearance. Any help is appreciated
