3) Place the specimen on the stage and swing the
10x objective into position. Focus on specimen.
4) Adjust the interpupillary distance and diopter.
(Refer to P. 9)
5) Carry out the centering procedure for the con-
denser. (Refer to P: 10)

• UW (ultra-wide) viewfield observation is possible
with 2X '" lOOX objective. In combination with
the Abbe condenser, however, the use of the lOX
or higher objective is possible.
• For photomicrography using the 4X or lower ob-
jective, remove the Abbe condenser.
• For photomicrography using the 2X objective,
preferably remove the condenser.
• For observation with the 1x objective, additional-
ly use the diffuser. (available on order).
• The Achromat/aplanat condenser is not included
