Dunco 85 / 4 Pro enlarging easel instructions

[petz]

Hi !
Can anybody help me out with deciphering the symbols on the left ruler on the easel? I cannot figure this one out ! Would anybody have a scan of the original instructions handy? I'd be thrilled if anybody could pass on a PDF as I cannot find anything on the net and Dunco have sadly never replied.

Cheers Mark!

Welcome to Apug!

Sorry about your bad experierences with Dunco themselves. Their website is a mess, but they explicitely offer a spares service, thus one would experct them to react on a request at least.

The additional (inner) scale on the left is related to the retractable stops.

Hi AgX,
Yes, I was expecting some sort of a reply too - unanswered and ignored mails get to me. I asked twice and try to give them benefit of the doubt that they never saw my request somehow.. That they still offer spare parts is really commendable though.

Of course - It's really obvious when one doesn't complicate matters .. many thanks for the tip ! I just also figured out that the grey pins are there to adjust the two sides for an exact 90° frame.

Hi! The thread is a bit old but as I happen to have the same easel and the same doubts I'm wondering if anybody could share a scan of the manual or a link..

I find the exact meaning of the symbols quite hard to decipher and so the black/grey colour of the pins..
Thanks
Marco
