Default Meopta Opemus 6

OK my EBay purchase has arrived:

Meopta Opemus 6 Black & White Head
Meopta Colour 3 Head
Meopta Viponel S-15 Enlarger timer

Totally unmarked, the chap has only used it for a couple of sessions and never got around to using the colour head. I am going to buy some extras from RK Photographic but I am trying to source a manual for it. The seller couldn't find it and I would like one for completeness and to make sure I have worked everything out right.

Anyone know of a source please?

You can try old timer cameras, sorry, don't know the web address,but the manual is not much, a few pages of bad tranlasted English, but they are very good and stong enlargers, well made and with a bit of care will last a lifetime, I have had mine for at least 10 years and no problems at all, Just a thought, but have you tried RK photographic,they imported meopta and just might have a manual Richard

I couldn't find a manual for my Opemus 6 when I got it S/H a few years back but it's generally self evident.I changed the baseboard as I often have done for something bigger and squarer.

Nice to use, just emerged now from a day with it, prints washing as I write.

Thanks chaps. Fortunately I have turned up one - still buried in the Meopta site. I will add the link for any other future/current members that come looking:
