Attaching Eye Level Risers
Optional eye level risers can be used for the adjustment of the height of the eyepiece tube to fit the
observer's eye point. Up to two eye level risers can be attached in piles. When one eye level riser is
attached, the eyepiece height rises 25 mm.
Attaching an eye level riser
1
Loosen the clamp screw for the eyepiece sufficiently,
then insert the eye level riser with fitting the dovetail
junctions of the eye level riser and the epi illuminator.
2
Secure the eye level riser by tightening the clamp
screw.
3
Attach the eyepiece tube on the eye level riser.

Attaching a Column Riser
An optional column riser can be used for the adjustment of the distance between the objective and
the stage when observing a thick specimen. It is attached between the arm and the stage of the
product. When a column riser is attached, the objective height rises 35 mm.
Attaching a column riser
1
Remove the illuminator, the eyepiece tube, and
the nosepiece when they are attached on the arm.
Be careful not to drop them.
2
Remove four hexagonal socket head bolts, which
fix the arm of the microscope to the stand. And
then, remove the arm.
3
Mount the column riser and the arm onto the
stand and fix them with four hexagonal socket
head bolts attached with the column riser.
To assure the accuracy of the product, tighten the
hexagonal socket head bolts in the order
described in the figure on the right.
(Do not use the old hexagonal socket head bolts
that were used to fix the arm.)
4
Put the removed parts back to their original
positions.
