I have a Smith Corona Model NA3HH typewriter which is in perfect
condition, but I cannot locate operating instructions.  I want to
donate it to a charity. Can you help locate a source for a copy of the
instuctions?

Hi jlibb,
I have contacted a company who may have this instruction manual, but
they do not recognise the code "NA3HH". Is there any other identifying
name or number on the typewriter (e.g. XP, XL, XE, SD, Electra,
Coronet, Galaxy, Zodiac)?

The Smith Corona Typewriter is a  "Display 900 Dictionary Typewriter"
It has a 25000 word dictionary which will automatically indicate a
misspelled word and
can correct it. Hope this helps find instructions. Thank you.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll give them a call tomorrow, and let
you know if they've got it or not.

Hi Jlibb,
I have located a copy of the instructions for the Smith Corona PE 900
typewriter. Please take a look at this picture, and let me know if
this looks like your typewriter. The person i spoke to believes this
is likely to be model of your typewriter - he faxed me this picture
from the instruction manual.

Tried to go to villagephotos,com , but site wouldn't open. "Use from
this location denied"
Is there another access to the picture of the printer?  Thanks much.

The PE 900 Smith Corona appears to be the same, though the image is
not too clear. Even if not identical, the instruction manual would
probably be OK.  How can I get the document?  Thanks for your help.
Sorry it took so much of your time.
 
Regards....  jlibb

Hi Jlibb,
You can order the instruction manual from "Silver Reed" (Tel. 01923
235616) whose are based in the UK. I have spoken to Mr. Wesley Hobbs
about this, and you can ask to speak to him. Alternatively, you can
send an email to mailto:dischuhmacher@talk21.com, marking it for the
attention of "Wesley Hobbs". A copy of the manual costs £10.
    
If you are in the US (sorry i forgot to ask) and this arrangement does
not suit you, you can contact Smith Corona via their toll-free
Customer Service line on 1-800-448-1018, or email
mailto:consumeraffairs@smithcorona.com for assistance.
I hope this helps!
regards,
JACKBURTON-ga
