Assembly
4.1 Polarisation unit + Microscope head
Inside the packaging the microscope head is already mounted but inclined towards
the rear. At first it must be removed by loosening the fixing screw on the connection
point of the tube and then taking it off from the connection point.
Instead of the head now the polarisation unit can be attached and fixed by the fixing
screw.
Thereby the unit can only be aligned in a certain position.
This ensures a pin, attached on the bottom side of the unit. This pin needs to be
inserted into the according socket on the rear of the connection point.
After that, the head is fitted onto the top of the connection point of the polarisation
unit and fixed by three fixing screws.
Preferably the head needs to be aligned in a way of pointing centrally towards the
front.
You should always make sure that you do not touch the lenses with your bare fingers
and that no dust enters the apertures.
The Bertrand lens and the analyser are inherent parts of the polarization unit. The
Lambda slip however, needs to be mounted additionally.
Please also see section 5.6 Adjusting the polarization unit
.
4.2 Objectives
All three objectives are already mounted to the nosepiece. After removing the
protective foil they are ready for use. They are ranged in such a way that if you turn
the nosepiece clockwise, the objective with the next higher magnification appears.
When the objectives need to be dismounted, you should always make sure that you
do not touch the lenses with your bare fingers and that no dust enters the apertures.
4.3 Eyepieces
The eyepiece is simply placed onto the tube connectors, when the protective cover is
removed before. There is no possibility of fixating the eyepiece. You should always
make sure that you do not touch the lenses with your bare fingers and that no dust
enters the apertures.
