Let off

[Newton Hunt]

Hi Rogério,

Let-off and backchecking are not directly related to each other.  One is
independent of the other.  Changing one will not effect the other.

Except that if the backcheck catches the hammer on it's way to the
string let-off may appear to be later than it actually is.
