Before you try to use the Leica L2 fibre-optic light source
and its fibre-optic light guide, please read:
• this user manual and the safety notes
• the user manual for your stereomicroscope or
macroscope, including the directions for care and
safety.
If safety instructions are not observed, the safety of the
equipment cannot be guaranteed. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused
by failure to comply with the contents of this user
manual.
The Leica L2 fibre-optic light source with its fibre-optic
light guides is the preferred illuminator for the Leica S4 E,
S6 E, S6, S6 T, S6 D and S8 APO. It can also be adapted to
the Leica MS5, MZ6, MZ7
5, MZ95, MZ125 and MZ APO
stereomicroscopes and to the Leica M420; alternatively it
can be used as a free-standing light source.
The Leica L2 is designed for laboratory and industrial
applications, and serves to provide powerful illumination
for all types of object so that they can be observed under
the stereomicroscope. With this in mind, the infrared
range is filtered out and the visible component of the
radiation is transmitted to the object through flexible
fibre-optic light guides. The housing of the Leica L2 is
made of antistatic material, providing maximum
protection against electrostatic discharge. The Leica
L2 is silent and free of vibrations; a 20W bulb is used,
so there is no need for a fan.
