delete first 7 characters in column in tMap

Hi, I just started with Talend and am learning a lot. But I have an issue I can't resolve and haven't found a solution to yet.

 

I have a table with combined info. It consists of postal code and address and I want it split.Example: "6093 EA Heythuysen". It has to split in "6093 EA" and "Heythuysen".

 

Via tMap I have added the column twice to the right side.

In the first I did a stringhandling.LEFT on the first 7 positions and this works. I get the 6093EA.

On the other output I can't use a stringhandling.RIGHT because I have different values with different lengths.

 

I tried substring(7) but then I get a string index out of range error.

 

How can I get rid of the first 7 characters?

 

Thank you in advance from a novice Talend user.
