I brought one of these home from Bletchley last weekend - turns out
they're quite addictive little things :-) It's a Monromatic 8N-3-213
which was marked as broken - I thought I'd see if there was anything
obviously wrong inside, plus of course I was curious as to what the
innards of such a machine looked like.
Question - does anyone have service information for these machines
(yeah, right!) or useful tips on things to check over?
There's a guy on eBay that sells reproduction service manuals of old
mechanical and electromechanical calculators.
He's also got a terrific website here:

One of the entries so far is the Monroe IQ-213:

Is this the same as your 8N-3-213 perhaps?
