5 . Project the arc image on the white paper, then center and

sharpen it by manipulating the collector focusing knob 6,

burner left/right centering knob 7 and burner up/down

centering knob 8 on the lamp housing. (Figs. 4 & 5)

# There may be causes in which the arc image projected

on the white paper is a mirror-reflected image. If the

arc image moves when the mirror left/right centering

screw 9 or mirror up/down centering screw a is turned,

it is a mirror-reflected image; bring it out of the field and

center the arc image as described above. (Fig. 4)

6 . Manipulate the burner left/right centering knob 7 slightly

to move the arc image to the right (or left). (Figs. 4 & 6 A)

7 . Using the Allen wrench provided with the illuminator, turn

the mirror focusing screw 9, mirror left/right centering

screw 9 and mirror up/down centering screw a to form

the mirror-reflected arc image on the white paper. (Figs. 4

& 6 B)

8 . Adjust the mirror centering screws 9 and a to move the

direct and mirror-reflected arc images in the symmetrical

position between each other, and turn the mirror focusing

screw b to adjust the size of the mirror-reflected image

until it is identical to that of the direct image. (Figs. 4 & 6 C)

9 . Turn the burner left/right centering screw 7 to overlap the

direct image with the mirror-reflected image. (Figs. 4 & 6 D)

10. Engage the 10X objective in the light path while continuing

to use the B-excitation mirror.

11. Place a specimen on the stage and bring into approximate

focus.

12. Look into the eyepiece and manipulate the collector

focusing knob 6 to make the field as bright as regular

as possible, then turn the knob clockwise to tighten.

} Maintain this condition until the next time the burner is

replaced.
