Caution!

Never look directly into the beam path!
When switching to the BF or Smith reflectors,
there is a danger of being glared!

Caution!

Light sources pose a potential irradiation
risk (glare, UV-radiation, IR-radiation).

For the 106z lamp housing, the direct filament im-
age (for halogen lamps) or direct arc image (for
gas discharge lamps), and its mirror image are
focused separately and adjusted to each other.

On the left side of the microscope, there is an
adjustment window (1.14, p. 16) for mapping the
light source.

While observing the light source in the adjust-
ment window, the lamp is adjusted as follows:
