from the revolving nosepiece.
Two slots are provided for the revolving nosepiece.
Insert the analyzer slider into the slot (indicated with
"A") far from the objective, and insert the λ plate into
the slot (indicated with "λ") near the objective.
Insert these two sliders with their nameplates down.
When the sliders hit the second click-stop position,
the analyzer or D-LP λ plate enters the optical path.
Pull them out to the first click-stop position, and the
dummy hole enters the optical path.
* These sliders are designed to perform the
simplified polarization microscopy under the
diascopic illumination. Insert the dummy slider into
the slot for other microscopy as these sliders are
not required.
