•
Use the coarse focusing drive to move the stage
carrier to the upper stop position.

).
•
Unscrew clamping screw (Fig. 25/

slightly, if necessary.
•
If available, swivel out the front lens (Fig. 25/

•
Insert the condenser (Fig. 25/

) fully into the
centering condenser mount (Fig. 25/

) between
the condenser carrier (Fig. 25/

carrier (Fig. 25/

). Turn the set screw on the
bottom of the condenser towards the groove

stage carrier to the back and insert the plug into
socket (Fig. 26/
