Equipping the Filter Changer
•
When inserting the filter sets, avoid
touching the filters in order to avoid
fingerprints. Clean dirty filters immediately
using a soft, lint-free cloth and pure alcohol.
Removing the simple filter holder
The Leica M165 FC and the Leica M205FA are
equipped at the factory with simple filter hold-
ers as "dummies". These must be removed
before inserting a filter.
1. Grasp the recess of the dummy in the filter
changer and pull it out.
Inserting the filter
1. Place the filter into the filter changer.
Ensure that the contour of the filter holder
matches the contour of the microscope.
2. Rotate the filter changer by hand until it
latches into place.
If the filter holder has not been inserted
correctly, the filter changer does not rotate.
3. Insert a total of four filters.
Slot for filter slide
There is a slot in the filter changer system for
an individually selectable filter, for example a
neutral density filter.
