It's in pretty good shape, could definitely use a cleaning but I'm not going to do that for you. Works great, I no longer use it as I have a larger washer now

I got rid of the siphon tube and just let the washer drain out the top. Current school of thought is that fixer being "heavier" is a non issue when washing prints. If you want to get it back to how they designed it you will just need to make a trip to your local plumbing or home supply place for some PVC tubing.

Water supply line has a 0.5 GPM flow valve installed which is what they recommend. So no trying to figure out much water you need to be running.

$200 shipped to Canada (CAD) or USA (USD). Paypal good and services please.

This nonsense that fixer is heavier than water was started by Fred Picker when he was trying to sell his Zone VI printwasher, it has been debunked many times by people that know about these things, most notably in the landmark article "Mysteries of the Vortex". I knew a chemical engineer at a major US brewery, as a test I mixed up some fixer and she left it standing still for a week, she then sampled the top and bottom of the solution and they were identical. I have one these washers and they are very good.
