| View Full Version : Durst 1200 question disfromage 06-12-2005, 03:33 PM I just bought a used Durst 1200 enlarger with a Dichroic head and have a question. There are 2 red levers on either side of the enlarger behind the mixing box and I can't figure out what their function is. They are marked with on/off symbols, but when I turn them nothing seems to happen. Can anyone with one of these enlargers please enlighten me? Thanks Richard jd callow 06-12-2005, 03:53 PM These are used to release the head so that it can be rotated for horizontal printing. If you PM me your address I will make you a copy of the owners manual. jd callow 06-12-2005, 03:54 PM Lovely enlarger isn't it? blaze-on 06-12-2005, 03:54 PM Move both to unlock the head so the unit can pivot either way for wall projection. disfromage 06-12-2005, 05:07 PM Lovely enlarger isn't it? Yes, it sure is. I bought it yesterday from a pro lab that closed. I felt a bit like a vulture circling a corpse when I bought it, but the enlarger was certainly a bargain. The man who helped me kept finding accessories and handing them to me; I got quite a complete kit. Thank you everyone who answered my question. I knew that the head pivots, but didn't know how.
