Nine years after I found the machine and gave it up as a lost cause, the C4 cast its first lines on March 3, 2014.
We replaced the mercury bimetal mouthpiece control with a simmerstat, cleaned mouthpiece with an oil stone, checked the lockup, set a 30 em 8pt line sent it away and cast an almost perfect line.
Still a few mechanical problems to solve but for all intents and purposes the Intertype is a functioning machine.
The new Funditor control with simmerstat circuit is below. Red = Active, Black = Neutral
