Switch off the Axio Zoom.V16 microscope and illumination. 

 

Remove the existing tube (Fig. 4/

1

) from the body of the microscope by loosening the hexagon socket 

screw (Fig. 4/

9

) with a ball-head screwdriver (SW 3 mm). 

 

Dismantle the spacer tubes analogously as necessary.  

 

The use of spacer tubes together with the Fluar Illuminator Z mot. is not recommended. 

 

Remove dust caps from Fluar Illuminator Z mot. (Fig. 4/

5

). 

 

Insert the Fluar Illuminator Z mot. into the dovetail mount of the microscope body (Fig.  4/

10

) and 

hand-tighten the hexagon socket screw (Fig. 4/

9

) with the ball-head screwdriver. 

 

The binocular ergo phototube Z (Fig.  4/

1

) should preferably be used for fluorescence 

applications with the Fluar Illuminator Z mot.  
When the ergo phototube Z is assembled for the first time, the shipping screw (hexagon socket 

screw SW 3) on the underside must be screwed out. Keep the shipping screw in a secure place 
for use at a later date. 

 

Insert the tube (Fig. 4/

1

) into the dovetail mount of the Fluar Illuminator Z mot. (Fig. 4/

5

) and hand-

tighten the hexagon socket screw (Fig. 4/

6

) with the ball-head screwdriver. 

 

To prevent eye injury due to scattered light, attach and swing in the anti-glare shield (Fig. 4/

7

on the right or left of the mount or revolving nosepiece (Fig. 4/

8

).

Connecting the HXP 200 C illuminator  

 

Never pull the light guide out of the Fluar Illuminator when the HXP 200 C is in operation.  

 

Mount the separately delivered HXP 200 lamp in the HXP 200 C illuminator before connecting 
the latter (see manufacturer's instructions). 

 

Remove the protective caps from each end of the HXP light guide (Fig. 4/

3

). 

 

Insert the short end of the HXP light guide (Fig. 4/

3

) until it engages in the light guide socket on the 

reverse side of the Fluar Illuminator Z mot. and secure with clamp screw SW 1 mm (Fig. 4/

2

). 

 

Insert the long end of the HXP light guide (Fig. 4/

3

) into the light guide socket on the reverse side of the 

HXP 200 C illumination unit (Fig. 4/

4

) and push until it engages (locks in automatically). 

 

Use a power cable to connect the power input on the reverse side of the HXP 200 C illuminator with a 

mains outlet.
