Attaching the Circular Graduated Stage
1 Remove the cushioning material from the
substage section and turn the coarse focus
handle until the elevating section is brought
to the uppermost position.
2 Place the circular graduated stage on the
substage. The stage must be level and both
stage rotation clamp screws must be located
in 45° directions from the microscope front
when fixed.
3 Fix the circular graduated stage with four
hexagonal socket head bolts via the sub-
stage in the upward direction. Use the
hexagonal wrench (2.5 mm) provided with
the microscope to screw the bolts.
4 If necessary, attach the specimen holders
into the hole on the stage.
For information about the optional
attachable mechanical stage, see Page 26,
“Attachable Mechanical Stage (Option).”

Attaching the Condenser
To perform the polarization microscopy, the P swing-out condenser must be attached.
1 Turn the coarse focus knob until the
elevating section is raised to the uppermost
position.
2 Turn the condenser focus knob until the
condenser holder is brought to the
lowermost position.
3 Insert the condenser and adjust its
orientation so that it faces toward the front.
Secure in place using the tool provided with
the microscope.
4 Turn the condenser focus knob until the
condenser holder is raised to the uppermost
position.
