Leica MZ125 Microscope & Magnifier User Manual


 
Microscope carrier
This microscope carrier permits only
stereoscopic observation, using both beam paths.
The microscope carrier can be fitted to the drive
housing in either of two positions (see page 34):
The optics carrier can be turned sideways in
the microscope carrier if the user needs to
work from the side:
̈Release the clamping screw.
̈Turn the optics carrier sideways
as required.
̈Retighten the clamping screw.
Microscope carrier AX
The stereomicroscopes can be equipped with the microscope
carrier AX for stereoscopic and axial observation instead of
the standard microscope carrier (page 34).
Different models are available for MS5, MZ6, MZ7
5, MZ95 and
for MZ12
5, MZ16 and MZ16 A. The achromatic objectives and
the planochromatic 1× fit in the thread in the AX microscope
carrier for MS5, MZ6, MZ7
5, MZ95 (p. 33).
The planochromatic and planapochromatic objectives fit in the
thread in the AX microscope carrier for MZ12
5, MZ16, MZ16 A
(p. 33). In addition, the AX microscope carrier features a clamp-
ing screw for fixing it in one of 3 positions and an aperture which
can be turned manually (see below). Otherwise, the use of and
switching to the left, middle and right position are identical.
The optics carrier cannot be turned sideways in the micro-
scope carrier AX.
A three-dimensional image is required for examining plastic
objects and for working.
̈Shift the stereomicroscope to the central position.
