   I believe there are 4 holes that you can see in the
bottom
 plate that go to empty threaded holes in the frame of the printer.
 You need to put these screws in and it will clamp the
 printer unit to the frame so it doesn't wobble around
 on the rubber mounts.
  I'd tell you what thread but my unit came without them :( 
Oddly enough, I had occasion to lock down my ASR 33 last night -- it
has one hole for a transit screw, at the centre near the front, between
the rubber mounts.  It takes a 10-32 screw about one-and-a-quarter
inches long, with a flat washer.   The manual says that when originally
shipped, there were six screws securing the typing unit and base to the
pallet, but only that one needs to be retained for future transit.
 Four other holes are used to secure the base to the stand.
