The slit height is continuously adjustable. Pull the lever out for the shortest height. Push the slide
in for the tallest height setting.
Use a 10x multiplier to convert the micrometer reading to the actual slit opening size. For
example, turning the dial one full revolution starting from the fully closed position will give a
reading of 50 on the micrometer. Using the multiplier, this indicates the micrometer width is set to
500 um. If unsure of the reading, begin at the fully closed position and add up each full revolution
made.
