Attaching the fluorescence mirror unit
· The Fluorescence set includes the B-excitation fluorescence
mirror unit, the G-excitation fluorescence mirror unit and the
empty mirror unit for bright field observation.
· Each fluorescence mirror unit can be attached to any of three
positions on the fluorescence mirror unit slider.
TIP
・When attaching or detaching the fluorescence mirror unit,
set the main switch of the light source for reflected light
illumination to (OFF) in advance.
・Be sure to attach the empty mirror unit for bright field ob-
servation.
CAUTION
Loosen the cover clamping screws (3 positions) a of the fluorescence
mirror unit slider using the Allen wrench and remove them.
Push in the fluorescence mirror unit slider knob b , and engage the
fluorescence mirror unit attaching position on the knob side in the
light path.
Hold the side of the fluorescence mirror unit and push it in the arrow
direction until the fluorescence mirror unit touches the end.
In this case, attach the fluorescence mirror unit at 2 positions
as shown in the picture.
Do not touch optical elements such as mirror or filter. If
fingerprints or dirt are attached to the optical elements ,
wipe them by referring to page 5.
Pull the fluorescence mirror unit slider knob b , and engage the
fluorescence mirror unit placed at the center in the light path.
Attach the fluorescence mirror unit to the center of the fluorescence
mirror unit slider according to step
3
.
Put the fluorescence mirror unit slider cover to the original position
and tighten the clamping screws (3 positions) a removed in step
1
using the Allen wrench.
Be sure to secure the fluorescence mirror unit slider cover
firmly using the clamping screws
a
. If the fluorescence
mirror unit slider cover comes off, the illumination light
leaks, which is very dangerous.
When removing the fluorescence mirror unit, follow the
procedures opposite to those of attaching.
