Filter slider for reflected light stand
−
Filter slider for reflected light with two positions for filters with a diameter of 25 mm (neutral and
color filters, white balance filter)
−
Insert the filter slider from the left and operate (Fig. 2-7/
5
)
2.5.6
Reflector turret with 4 positions
The 4-position reflector turret is equipped with
push-and-click (P&C) reflector positions.
The reflector position is adjusted by turning the
knurled ring (Fig. 2-19/
1
). The marking
2
) on the knurled ring shows the
reflector position in the beam path.
The stickers supplied can be used to identify the
reflector modules used. The stickers can be applied
to the areas provided (Fig. 2-19/
3
).
2.5.7
Low-power system for objectives
2.5x/4x
The low-power system is for full display field
illumination when using an objective with a weak
magnification factor (2.5x–4x) in combination with
the Abbe condenser 0.9/1.25 H.
It can be centered and remains swiveled into the
beam path for as long as the respective objective is
in use.
−
Swivel the low-power system (Fig. 2-20/
2
)
into/out of the beam path using the handle
(Fig. 2-20/
1
). Ensure that the low-power
system snaps in securely when swiveled in.
The illumination of weak objective magnifications can be centered with the centering screws. For this
purpose, the condenser should be centered on the other objectives without the low-power system.
ATTENTION
If the condenser carrier with mounted low-power system is moved too far down, the low-
power system may collide with the field diaphragm and damage it!
