I believe that the very earliest TK14s did not have a latching pause button. I have one here that did not, it is the blue and white colour scheme. It has red dots on the pause and stop buttons. I fitted the latching mech from a scrap machine, the pause button is pretty much useless without it.

I think that soon after production started a latch mech was added. At the same time the red dots on the buttons was dropped. So many small variations on this range of machines.

Mark.
