Attaching the Binocular
(Photo)Tube
All the binocular tubes listed in the system
overview can be attached to the stand as described
below.
The microscope comes with a factory-mounted
50-mm ergo intermediate piece, to which another
50-mm or 25-mm ergo intermediate piece may be
added. If the ergotube is employed, only ergo
intermediate pieces of up to 25 mm should be
used, however. The utilization of the 50-mm
extension would require optical compromises. For
the installation, follow the same procedure as for
the installation of the tube.
To mount or change the tube, proceed as follows:
•
Use ball-headed screwdriver SW 3 to loosen the
Allen screw (Fig. 3-2/
3
) on the ergo
intermediate piece. If necessary, hold the tube
to be changed and remove it toward the front.
•
Remove the dust cap from the tube to be mounted (Fig. 3-2/
2
) and from the ergo intermediate piece,
as applicable.
•
Insert the binocular tube (Fig. 3-2/
1
) with the dovetail ring into the tube port (Fig. 3-2/
4
) of the ergo
intermediate piece, align it with the ergo intermediate piece and retighten the Allen screw (Fig. 3-2/
3
),
using the ball-headed screwdriver.
