Install a T250V, 3.15A fuse. C-Mount Assembly: Loosen the trinocular head set screw (1) and remove the trinocular port dust cap (2).
  • Page 12 Full Phase Contrast / Polarization Assembly: Phase Contrast Condenser Assembly: Install phase contrast objective lenses. Insert the condenser into the holder and tighten set screw. Rotate the phase adjustment ring (2) to “BF” (bright eld) until it clicks into place. Focus on a sample to ensure condenser is installed straight.
  • Page 13 Fluorescence Light Assembly: Installing the Fluorescence Illuminator: Place the uorescence module (2) on the microscope body and tighten the set screw. Place the binocular / trinocular head on top of the uorescence module and tighten the set screw (3). Insert transformer (1) into socket (2) and then plug directly into outlet.
