When using the high container (Procedures to attach / detach the condenser portion)
Hold the condenser portion with one hand.
Loosen the condenser fixing knob with the other hand to remove it.
Place the removed condenser portion on the level surface
or place it with the lens surface facing up in order not to
scratch the lens.
· You can use the high container for observation by removing the
condenser portion. However, the phase contrast observation
is not available. Confirm the visibility of the observed image
before using.
· For procedures to attach the condenser portion, see page 33.

Changing between bright field observation and phase contrast observation
(Phase contrast entry set / Phase contrast standard set / Fluorescence set)
When performing the phase contrast observation
Slide the pre-centered phase contrast slider CKX3-SLP and engage the
phase contrast ring placed at the center of the slider in the light path.
· The pre-centered phase contrast slider is provided with the
Phase contrast entry set, the Phase contrast standard set, and
the Fluorescence set.
· When using the iPC series phase contrast objective, it is not
necessary to change the phase contrast ring even though you
change the objective. (See page 30.)
· Useful information
Loosening the condenser fixing knob a to rotate the
condenser portion allows you to change the direction of the
pre-centered phase contrast slider within the range of ±30°.
Select the direction easy to observe.
When performing the bright field observation
Slide the pre-centered phase contrast slider CKX3-SLP and engage
the empty hole of the slider in the light path.
