IT APPEARS TO BE WORKING, THE HANDLES TURN AND IT ZEROS BACK. Functions: add / subtract / multiply / divide. Marked: ORIGINAL-ODHNER, Göteborg Sverige, No. UNDERNEATH STAMPED IN THE CASING IS m602 nO 5. Model 27 has no check dial or counter carry mechanism, but is fitted with a back-transfer mechanism to allow a sum or product to be re-used in a subsequent calculation. On completion of the first calculation the operator clears the rotor and presses the back-transfer lever (at the right of the carriage).

As the accumulator is then cleared, the mechanism transfers its contents back to the rotor. A small release lever is provided below the back-transfer button, in case it was pressed accidentally. The back-transfer mechanism became standard equipment on most subsequent models. THE PHOTOGRAPHS FORM PART OF THE DESCRIPTION.
