Fialka Toolkit
According to the checklist that came with a Fialka machine, each machine was supplied with a small toolkit that was used for daily maintenance and small repairs. It contained tools to adjust the machine and to remove paper from a blocked machine.
 
The image on the right shows a typical toolkit that was supplied with a Fialka machine. It is a small canvas wallet in army colours that can be unfolded to reveal the tools.

The wallet contains various screwdrivers, wrenches, pins and hooks, some of which are especially made for the Fialka. Toolkits like the one shown here are extremely rare.

Another extremely rare find is the special oil can that is shown below. It was found in a former Fialka repair facility.
