Turning On the Bulb

1. Set the main switch @ to " " (ON).

2. Turn the light intensity knob ² clockwise in the direction of the arrow

to make the illumination brighter or counterclockwise to make it darker.

The numbers around the knob indicates the reference voltage values.

Field Iris Diaphragm

Using the field iris diaphragm ring @, adjust the diameter of the field

iris for objective power to the extent that it just circumscribes the field

of view. When the field iris diaphragm is stopped down to circumscribe

the field of view, it will exclude extraneous light and improve image

contrast within the field of view.

#When using the 100X objective, the field iris diaphragm image will

not be visible within the field of view. Accordingly, stop down the

diaphragm to its smallest diameter.

Dummy Slider

The dummy slider provided with the microscope frame can be used to

accommodate the optional transmitted light analyzer (U-ANT).

By preparing a transmitted light polarizer (U-POT) and polarizing light

condenser (CH3-CDP), simple polarized light observation becomes

possible.
