To mount the filter wheel, unscrew the
cross-recessed screw and remove the filter
holder plate.
The excitation filter must now be inserted in one
of the five open filter holders.
The daylight filter (Fig. 2) is handled in the same
way. The daylight filter is part of the standard
delivery and is used to increase the color
temperature (for bright field applications). The
filter wheel features 5 positions for max. five
filters.
Fit the filter holder plate on and fasten it
(Fig. 2).
Insert the filter wheel in the guide and slide it
into the light source until it engages (Fig. 3).
