Follow the same procedure when mounting other condensers.
NOTE
If an additional component, e.g. a polarizer, has been mounted beneath the condenser
carrier, the stage carrier should be removed.
NOTE
If the Abbe condenser is used in combination with a rotary stage, ensure that the position of
the condenser head is centered as exactly as possible relative to the stage opening.
