Olympus IX71 Microscope Z-Axis Motor Drive
Installation
This procedure steps you through the installation and alignment of the ASI’s IX71 Z-axis motor drive
onto the Olympus IX71 microscope.
NOTE: On January 2007 Olympus changed the size of the
threaded end of their fine focus shaft from 3 mm to 4 mm.
Microscopes with serial numbers '7Axxxxxx' and newer, and
all 8-digit versions, identify the 4 mm version. The threaded
shaft diameter can also be directly measured after the left-
hand fine-focus knob has been removed. This installation
manual applies to both versions.
Typical diameter of threaded end of Olympus 4 mm fine focus shaft
ASI offers Z-Drives with drive shafts for both 3 mm and 4 mm versions
