Kindermann 707 LPL / Jobo 7700 Help

[k__43]

I just got a Kindermann 707 LPL with color head but no lens and no lens board. I'll finally be able to make 6x7 enlargements and I hope to go big with that one.
Since I got no manual I hope someone here can give me some hints.

First, what kind of lens board do I need? A square one or a round one like the Dursts? I want to use my Meopta Anaret 80mm first and later upgrade to a Rodenstock APO so both thread sizes are needed 🙁

Second, I've read somewhere in the net that one could also use the enlarger to project onto the wall. how do I do that? I saw a tilt mechanism but that doesn't go 90° or does it?

Maybe someone has that manual and is able to scan it for me? Thanks!

The lens boards are round and you can get them new (and expensive) e.g. from http://store.khbphotografix.com or any Jobo dealer.
For wall projection you loosen the big yellow (or black?) screw at the back of the head and just turn the complete head 90 degrees.

A manual in French is here: http://manuelsphoto.free.fr/

Enjoy, it's a very good enlarger.

I'll have a look at home and will probably post another question 😀

It's a bit hidden but this site: http://www.khbphotografix.com/LPL/ is a very useful LPL resource.

The lens boards at KHB are indeed quite pricy .. more that what I've paid for the enlarger itself. I think it's time for some DIYing
