The ease of motion is factory adjusted (to be changed only by the service staff). Clamping screw (3) for the condenser (used only for con denser exchange using SW 3 key). Two centering screws (6) for the condenser. These are used to center the luminous field diaphragm image for the setting of KÖHLER illumination.

Position turret disk with DIC prism to be changed in the exchange opening and hold it on the knurled ring, since no click stop is effective in this position. Unscrew retainer ring using the so called double function tool (4). Screw threaded side (4) of the tool into the prism mount (3) and then pull out the DIC prism. Remove the DIC prism (2) from the tool and screw on the new, required prism. Installation of the DIC prism is made in reverse order. Make sure that the DIC prism is oriented correctly (groove (5) must engage in the pinion of the mount). Make sure that the knurled ring of the turret disk is labeled correctly. 12 11 B 40 042 e 09/99 55 Microscope Components Achromatic aplanatic condenser 1. 4 The achromatic aplanatic condenser 1. 4 is equipped with fixed front lens and turret disk.
