Attach an objective.
ttach the objective to be used to the zooming body or intelligent nosepiece. Up to two intelligent nosepieces can be
attached.
The attachment procedure is the same for all objective types.
The following figures show an example of attaching a 2x objective to the intelligent nosepiece.
Handling the objective
Be sure to hold the objective of the microscope system with both hands because it is very heavy.
Hold the objective by hand when tightening or loosening the fixing screw. In addition, scratches or fingerprints on the
lens at the end will degrade the microscope images. Handle the objective carefully.
(1) Completely loosen the M4 set screw for the
objective at the top front of the zooming body using
the hex driver (nominal designation: 2).
(2) Align and fit the mark (white dot) on top of the
objective to the objective fixing screw position and
rotate the objective counterclockwise (as viewed
from the top).
