  7.8.4    Attaching a Filter Slider for Dia Illumination (Optional) 
Desired filters can be attached to the TI2-D-SF filter slider for dia illumination. (Tool: 2 mm hexagonal 
screwdriver, supplied with the microscope main body) 
The filter slider for dia-illumination is an option that is recommended when a D-LH/LC precentered 
lamphouse is used for dia-illumination. 
 
 
CAUTION 
   
   
 
 Precautions against heat: 
Do not touch the precentered lamphouse while the lamp is lit and for approximately 30 minutes after it has 
been turned off. 
 
 
 
  Handling of the optical components 
Do not touch the surface of optical components such as the filter with bare hands. 
 
1.  Remove the slider portion from the filter 
slider for dia illumination. 
The stoppers at both ends are used to limit the 
sliding movement of the slider portion.   
Press the stopper on the side opposite to the 
knob to release the lock to remove the slider 
portion from the slot. Pulling the slider portion 
forcibly might damage the stopper.
