Switching the Optical Path of the Tube

For observing a specimen using the eyepiece, switch the optical
path to the binocular part. For imaging using the DS camera head,
switch the optical path to the vertical tube. Use the optical path
switching lever of the tube to switch the optical path. Push or pull
the lever to make the desired selection. Be sure the lever is fully
pushed in or pulled out. Do not leave the lever stopped partway.
