Attach The Quadrocular Tilting Tube And Dsc Zooming Port For Quadrocular Tube - Nikon Eclipse Ni-E Instruction Manual

12

Attach the quadrocular tilting tube and DSC zooming port for quadrocular tube.

Tools: Hex driver (2 mm across flats)
Hex driver (2.5 mm across flats, included with DSC zooming port)
Hex wrench (3 mm across flats)
Hex wrench (4 mm across flats)
First connect the quadrocular tilting tube and DSC
zooming port for quadrocular tube and then attach them
on the microscope arm (if fluorescence cube turret,
epi-fluorescence attachment or motorized barrier filter
wheel is attached, on top of that).
(1) Remove the tightening screws at the bottom of the
tube using a hex wrench (4 mm across flats).
(2) Remove the contact covers at the rear of the tube.
(The manual quadrocular tilting tube has no contact
point.)
(3) Insert the positioning pin on the DSC zooming port
in the tube while aligning it with the positioning hole
on the tube, and then tighten the contact fixing screw
on the top of the tube using a hex wrench (2.5
across flats).
(4) Remove the contact cover of the contact arm.
(When the manual quadrocular tilting tube is used,
do not remove the contact cover.)
(5) Loosen the fixing screw on the front of the arm using
a hex driver (2 mm across flats) so that the tip of the
screw does not protrude into the connecting section.
(If epi-fluorescence cube turret or barrier filter wheel
is attached, the fixing screw at the front of that unit.)
(6) Loosen the set screws (x2) on both sides of the
zooming port using a hex driver (2 mm across flats).
(7) Engage the round dovetail and the convex contact of
the quadrocular tube with the dovetail and concave
contact of the arm, and then slide the entire mounted
units to the rear side.
(The manual quadrocular tilting tube has no
convex contact.)
(8) Tighten the fixing screw loosened in step (5)..
(9) Tighten the fixing screws (x2) on the top of the
zooming port using a hex wrench (3 mm across
flats).
(10) Tighten the set screws loosened in step (6).
(11) Adhere the provided sticker to cover the hole for
fixing the zooming port.
When attaching the quadrocular tube and DSC zooming
port to the epi-fluorescence cube turret or barrier filter
wheel, the location of the fixing screws at the front of
those units is deep so it will be easier that you insert the
hex driver (2 mm across flats) into the screw before
placing the quadrocular tube or that you have a pen light
when working.
