17. Tiltable Illumination Pillar
1) Tilting the pillar
The illumination pillar may be tilted to provide a wider operation space, which is
useful to change large-size specimens.
As shown in the figure below, rotate and unlock the clamp screw on the rear of
the pillar, hold the front of the diascopic illumination unit (shown by arrow in the
figure), and gently tilt the pillar toward the back.
Usually, the tilting clamp screw may be left unlocked.
But when relatively heavy attachments is attached to the pillar, the tilting clamp
screw should be locked to avoid the pillar from accidentally tilting.
NOTE
• -CAUTION - Be careful not to get your fingers caught by the
openings on the pillar when tilting it.
• Be sure to clamp the screws tightly when attaching the
relatively heavy attachments such as optional high intensity
light source. If not, they may drop when the pillar is tilted.
• When using the optional high intensity light source, be sure to
check if they are clamped tightly before tilting the pillar. (To
avoid the drop.)
