Hi,

I recently purchased a V35 enlarger and the front-back tilt alignment on the head is waaaayy off in relation to the baseboard. After poking around the past posts in photo.net, it sounds like it is not terribly complex to make the adjustment oneself (but there is no detailed description as to how to do this). I have taken the plastic panel off the enlarger arm but it was not intuitive which bolt will allow me to adjust the head tilt. Does anyone have any experience?

BTW - I know I can use shims but want to use shims as a last resort.

Thanks Jack
