1. Model: DYMO MITE M-3 Tapewriter 2. Material: Chrome-plated aluminum 3. Dial: Metal 4. Compatible Tape: Plastic tape and metal tape 12mm (1/2 inch) 5. Functions: Hole punch function Corner cutter (embossing type) This is a DYMO M-3. The mechanism is in good working order, but the front cutter shaft is not yet broken in, so if it's difficult to remove, please move it up and down slightly (this will be resolved with use). There are some minor storage scratches, but no other scratches or rust. The chrome plating is thick and will not rust easily. The age dates back to the late 1950s to the early 1960s. Equipped with a hole punch function for fixing the tape. Serviced and fully operational. Suitable for first-time vintage DYMO users and easy to maintain. Also, please check the profile section. I have uploaded blogs, parts lists, and manuals on Instagram. Please search by ID. Regarding precautions for vintage DYMOs: ① For DYMO MITE series and 1011 series, perform two to three blank strikes at the beginning of stamping (to prevent character misalignment). This is common to almost all DYMOs. ② For models M-2 and M-3, which have a knife-shaped cutter at the tip and no cutter function knob, the hammer spring is a single sheet (this is not a missing part). ③ When inserting the tape, make sure the tape is straight (if there is a switch to specify the tape width, check and set the position in advance). ④ Although there are individual differences depending on the model, there may be vertical misalignment in horizontal writing (some adjustment is possible if the misalignment is large, but please be aware that some misalignment may remain). ⑤ For models with a razor-shaped cutter built into the tip (M-6, M-10, etc.), the tape may get stuck in front of the blade due to tape bending; in that case, raise the cutter slightly. ⑥ Since the original metal tape is newly manufactured, the tape has no kinks and has a repulsive force, so the tape may not advance due to resistance when stored in the main unit. Please cut it in advance or stamp without storing it.
