2
), 90°
rotatable
Polarizer, fixed with lambda plate, rotatable,
(Fig. 2-21/7)
−
Polarizer can be swiveled in/out using handle
(Fig. 2-21/
5
)
−

You can change the objectives quickly by
turning the nosepiece on knurled ring
(Fig. 2-22/
2
).
−
Incorporates slot (Fig. 2-22/
3
) for 6x20mm
slider (compensators, analyzers, quarter plates).
−
Stand for transmitted light polarization and
stand for transmitted light conoscopy with
5_position nosepiece, of which one position
is fixed and four positions can be centered
with the aid of two screws each
(Fig. 2-22/
1
).
ATTENTION
Do not overtighten the screws (Fig. 2-22/
