First, attach the column adapter between stand
column and base. It is used to ensure that the
center of the objective lies exactly over the center
of the stage.
Fasten the column adapter (8.1) with the
3 hexagon-head screws on the column.
Fasten the column with the column adapter on
the stand base according to the operating
instructions M2-105-0.

2.5 Focusing stop

The focusing stop is used for safety
purposes and must always be correctly set with
respect to the micro objective.
Fasten the focusing stop (8.2) to the column
with the clamping screw (8.3).
Set the focusing stop at a height so that
the micro objective can never hit the stand or
table surface or the object during focusing and
swinging. Working distance 5× HR objective:
19mm, 20× HR objective 13mm.
With a correctly set focusing stop, the two
stops prevent focusing too low, either manually or
motorized.
If the focusing stop is set too low
– the objective could be damaged.
– the object could be crushed or damaged.
– if the lowest focus position is approached too
quickly using the motor focus, the fingers of the
operator could be pinched between objective
and object.
