6. Assembly
6.3 Tube and Eyepieces
Note:
For fluorescence applications, install the
fluorescence illuminator* first → p. 21.
If available, the analyzer* (10.1) must be
inserted into the stand. This requires that the
guide key engages in the guide pin (10.2).
To mount the analyzer, the analyzer mount TL*
20 mm or 60 mm can also be placed between
stand and tube.
An intermediate tube pole* with a switchable
analyzer (on/off) and Bertrand lens is also
available as an option.
The tube is mounted to the stand either directly or
with the use of intermediate modules*.

6.4 Objectives
Always only use Leica objectives of tube length ¥
(infinity)! The standard thread is M25. The
objectives should be arranged so that the
magnification increases when the objective
nosepiece is rotated counter-clockwise.
Attention:
Lower the specimen stage as far as possible
before assembling the objectives. Close vacant
threads in the nosepiece with dust protection
caps!
