any helpful advice with ra4 and the icp42?

[green island studios]

HI
I have bought an icp42 and iwd washer dryer unit, and have been given an incomplete manual with it, does anyone know where I can get a copy of the manual? I am concerned about the missing chapters offering valuable safety and maintenance advice for the new user.....
Also, what are P30, P22 and P5 processes? I am going to do RA4 with fuji paper and tetenal chemistry.
Any advice?

We have been using an Ilford ICP42 (not the washer/drier) for 16 or so years. We use Kodak RA-4 chemistry.

What ya need to know? I should have the complete manual around here somewhere.

PS Those "P" processes are Ilfochrome/Cibachrome processes.

For RA-4:

first tank -- 2 liters RA Developer 55 seconds 95F degrees
second tank -- 2 liters Bleach/Fix same
3rd tank -- 2 liter water same
both tanks of the IWD take 4 liters water 55sec 95F

Don't know how Kodak RA-4 compares with Tetenol

Hey Thanks for the advice - such a newbie to colour darkroom chemistry - gonna turn out the lights in an hour and get started!! cant wait....

I need a copy of the manual to check all the sections on safety and maintenance etc, can I pay you to send me a copy of your manual?

Send me an email with your address and I'll send you a copy -- no charge for fellow APUGger.

(Resurrecting a 9 year old thread because I always search before I ask ;-) )

I checked with Vaughn, he no longer has the PDF of this manual. green island studios hasn't logged on in years. Anyone else have a copy? Google found me a copy in German which will help, but I'd really prefer the English one if anyone has it.

Thanks,
Duncan

Sadly I do not have enough posts to add the shiny new mediafire link I just created.

I found the manual you want a month or so ago but can not now find the link to where I found it and as its 24Mb it needs to be a link rather than email attachment.

I'll see if I can find things of sufficient interest to break the five post barrier.

Disclaimer etc

I am assuming that this is fair use the equipment is many years out of production and is not supported by the manufacturer who do not have this literature available. If the link is still considered objectionable please remove and any one that needs it contact me.

Mediafire Link.

Thanks! That's exactly what I needed.
