To Change the Date
(See cut in front.)
The three thumb-nuts, “D,” “E” and “F,” control the dating wheels. The outside or longest
thumb-nut “F” controls the months; the next or middle thumb-nut “E” is numbered from one to
three, and prints the 10th, 20th and 30th days of the month; the shortest thumb-nut “D”
represents the days from 0 to 9. The first or outside wheel must be changed the first of each
month, the second wheel every ten days, and the third daily. The numbers on the thumb-nut
representing the date to be printed on the check must be at the top or upper position. For
example, to print Nov. 26, the numbers 11 2-6 must be in view on top of the thumb-nuts.
