Abstract
A document track for use in a check encoding machine or typewriter comprises a workhead positioned in a slot in a wall of the track, the slot being positioned transverse to the direction of movement of a document in the track, the slot closed off by a flexible strip held flush with the inner surface of the wall by means of first and second support brackets and first and second support arms. As the workhead moves up and down the slot, the flexible strip passes around the workhead such that only a working surface of the workhead is exposed in the slot, the rest of the slot being screened off flush with the inner surface of the wall by the flexible strip.
