Leica LED5000 RL: Assembly
Required tools
None
O
The Leica LED5000 RL is installed on the
objective using a single screw. It has
been optimized for a working distance between
50 mm and 80 mm.
Constraints
The Leica LED5000 RL can be used only in
conjunction with the planapochromat 1× and
planapochromat 0.63× objectives. With all
other objectives, the working distance is too
low for adequate illumination.
The ring illuminator cannot be used together
with the objective nosepiece.
