Adjusting transmitted-light phase 
contrast or transmitted-light 
darkfield 

• 

First, adjust the microscope as you do for 
brightfield. 

• 

Turn the nosepiece to swing the phase-contrast 
objective (40x/Ph 2) into the light path. 

• 

Open the luminous-field diaphragm (Fig. 9/

3

, if 

adjustable) on the stand and open the aperture 
diaphragm by means of control lever (Fig. 9/

1

on Abbe condenser (Fig. 9/

2

). 

• 

If the phase-contrast slider (Fig. 9/

6

) was not 

factory-installed yet, first unscrew its screw 
(Fig. 9/

7

). Then, push the slider from the left 

into the Abbe condenser and screw the screw 
(Fig. 9/

7

) back in again.  

• 

Push the slider to the right as far as it will go to 
move the phase stop into the light path. 

• 

Move the control lever of the aperture 
diaphragm to fully open it on the Full Köhler 
model or set it to the 

PH

 mark on the Fixed 

Köhler model. 

• 

Adjust the illumination intensity as needed. 

• 

Check the centering of the phase stop 
according to the drawing in Fig. 10. To this end, 
remove one eyepiece and replace it by the 
eyepiece telescope.  

• 

Center the phase stop, if necessary, (Fig. 10/

A

by turning the two adjusting screws of the 
slider (Fig. 9/

5

) by means of the two Allen keys 

SW 1.5 (Fig. 9/

4

) until the phase stop image 

corresponds to that shown in Fig. 10/

B

• 

Afterwards, replace the eyepiece telescope by 
the eyepiece again. 

 

 

For darkfield applications, use the darkfield slider in place of the phase-contrast slider.
