In addition to EBAE you probably want a copy of the Computer Braille Code,
Revised 2000 which is available from APH.

The continuation indicator is deal with in Section 6.
6.1 Continuation indicator (456, 12346)
The continuation indicator is a line division sign. It is used in instance
in which the linear arrangement of the print is significant and the braille
line is not long enough to finish the print line. Line division may occur
within embedded computer notation as well as within computer notation set off
from
the body of the text and may generally occur at convenient points (i.e., all
available spaces on the braille line need not be filled). If no spaces are
present at the point of line division, the continuation indicator should
immediately follow the last cell of the braille line (i.e., no spaces should
intervene). The continuation indicator may not be used between the cells of a
multi-cell sign (e.g., between the first and second cells of the "left brace"
symbol). When used to divide countable spaces indicators, the continuation
indicator must be preceded by two full cells (123456, 123456). The
continuation
indicator is not considered a countable space.
6.2 The remainder of the original print line is continued on the next
braille line(s). Runovers or computer notation set off from the body of the
text
begin in cell 2. Runovers of embedded computer notation begin at the margin
currently in effect in order to aid the scanning braille reader in
distinguishing program from narrative.
6.3 A continuation indicator should be used when the entire print line will
not fit on the braille line(s), even if the line division occurs following a
complete word.
Hope this helps.
