I just acquired one of these this summer from a retired photography teacher, I am looking for a Manuel, copied or original. it has the beseler agfa color head, but it's missing the white glass on the bottom. does any one know what I need to replace this ?
this is my first enlarger so I know very little on how these work

If you have the lens panel, lens bellows, negative stage, and the bellows above the negative stage, which should end in a circular mount with two sliding lock bars on top, then you might do better to hunt up a standard condenser head or 45s head for it. Is the Agfa head actually working?
Look at the MXT manual.

I will get some pics and post, im snowed in at the moment lol
yes the agfa is working, it is missing the white bottom glass, I don't know what type of glass ( thickness or density ) to replace it with .
I do have a beseler dg-1 dichro head as well as an lektra fh-22 filter head I guess is for B&W which right now is what im doing most of.​
