6.14 Inserting the Front Module Slider
If your microscope is prepared for integrated
modulation contrast or integrated phase con-
trast, a front module (possibly in conjunction
with a manual magnification changer) will be in-
tegrated in the stand. This is recognizable by a
2x 3 cm opening at the left front side of the mi-
croscope. If this opening is not present or
closed, then your microscope is not prepared
for the integrated processes.
A slider for integrated modulation contrast or in-
tegrated phase contrast fits in this opening. The
phase contrast slider may still require the instal-
lation of phase rings.
Insert the slider with the markings facing for-
ward. It features a bright-field position and two
positions for contrast methods (position A and
position C).
(A and C designate the eyepoint of the used ob-
jective. Please refer to the included objective
list for the eyepoint of your objective. It can also
be found engraved on the objective.)

6.15 Installation of the polarizer and analyzer
Installed at the factory.
To change the components, proceed as follows:
Motorized condenser:
See included installation instructions.
Manual condenser:
Attach the single or triple position holder to the
top of the manual condenser. The holder has a
guide that must be inserted in the opening next
to the screw threads. The holder must be posi-
tioned so that the polarizer or filter to be used
covers the opening of the condenser.
Insert the polarizer or filter with the correct side
facing up into the holder (λ: lambda and
polarizer; POL: polarizer only). A click mecha-
nism will indicate proper seating. The polarizer
must turn easily between the two stops (approx.
30°).
