      If the burner is on but the image from your Olympus Microscope is dark, first ensure the shutter is open. Then, check if the ND filter is engaged and remove it if necessary. Verify that the fluorescence mirror unit is correctly engaged and matches the specimen. Also, make sure that the aperture and field iris diaphragms are centered and fully enlarged.

      If your Olympus Microscope's field of view is obscured, ensure the objective and fluorescence mirror unit are correctly engaged in the light path. The revolving nosepiece and ND slider should click into place properly. Also, check that the field iris diaphragm is not set too small; center the aperture iris diaphragm and field iris diaphragm, then fully enlarge the field iris diaphragm. Finally, ensure the mercury burner is properly centered.
