Well, this is a photography forum. I'm under the assumption many are familiar with Omega enlargers.. not Ford pickups.

Do I need to sort of calibrate the color head ? Zero it or something?

David`s comment is valid in that we have a large diverse group on this forum with differing levels of knowledge, as well as the issue of an individual`s exposure to different equipment.
Greg has serviced this equipment for customers, ic has maintained his own, Fred has run a daarkroom with multiple units, and I have owned an Omega D5 XL for a number of years. Others do not share that experience.
There is also the issue that not all equipment is distributed to all countries (Omega is a USA manufacturer), nor might it be called the same in all markets for very valid reasons. There is the old story recounted in all basic international marketing courses, where General Motors tried to sell a popular car nameplate within the USA and Canada, in Spanish speaking countries with a nameplate that translated in Spanish to NO GO (NO VA)...
So yes a title of I Purchased the Omega D5 XL Enlarger would have been better.
