Inserting reversible eyecups
The eyepieces have rubber protection rings to avoid scratches on the eyeglasses. These may be replaced
by reversible eyecups as desired.
x
For this purpose remove the eyeglass protection rings (Fig. 3-7/
2
) from the eyepieces and mount the
eyecups (Fig. 3-7/
1
).
Sometimes the eyeglass protection rings are seated very tightly in the eyepiece groove, so you may need
a blunt object (wooden stick) to prod them off.

Remove the dust caps (Fig. 3-8/
5
) from the
openings in the nosepiece.
x
Remove objectives (Fig. 3-8/
4
) from the case
and screw them into the nosepiece (Fig. 3-8/
1
)
starting with the lowest magnification
(clockwise rotation).

Instead of an objective, the specimen marker
(Fig. 3-8/
3
) with a spacer ring W0.8/M27
(Fig. 3-8/
2
) can be screwed on in any desired
nosepiece position. If the specimen marker is
not to be used for an extended period, apply
the protective cap to prevent it from drying out.
Always replace the dust caps on any empty positions on the nosepiece.
Spacer ring W0.8/M27 is required when using W0.8 objectives.
