This process generally takes 3-4 man hours to complete! If you send us a writer for a basic cleaning and it's the tech's assessment that the writer needs an overhaul we will contact you with two options. Either upgrade to a complete overhaul or we will be unable to guarantee that your machine will work flawlessly after we perform the cleaning. We reserve the right to charge an additional $50.00-$100.00 for an machine that is exceptionally dirty (we will notify).
Service Price List
Stenograph recommends servicing your writer every two years. A new battery, ribbon or any other additional repairs would be an additional charge. If a machine is excessively dirty and or has hard to remove keypads then we reserve the right to charge an additional fee. Shipping charges not included.
