Centering of objectives
When the Pol stage (3-4/
3
) and uncentered objectives are turned, object details above the center of the
eyepiece cross migrate to circular paths (3-4/
1
- dashed line). The following procedure is required to
center the objectives:
•
Unlock the stage stop by turning screw (3-4/
6
) by approx. ¼ rotation in counterclockwise direction.
•
Swing in transmitted-light objective of medium magnification (20
×
- 50
×
) via the nosepiece.
•
Insert SW 1.5 key (3-4/
2
) in the drilled centering holes on the nosepiece.
•
Turn the specimen stage and search for the apparent center of rotation (cross (3-4/
1
)). The center of
rotation is also the center of the stage rotation.
•
Use the keys to move this center of rotation to the intersecting point of the eyepiece crosslines and
therefore into the optical axis of the microscope.
•
Repeat the procedure with a distinct, small object detail in the direct proximity of the center of the
rotary stage.
•
Carefully remove the key.
•
Swing in the neighboring objective; search for the center of rotation and the distinct object details
and perform the adjustment procedure as described above.
☞
To retain the centering status, it is absolutely necessary to change the objectives only via the
knurled ring of the objective nosepiece.
