Assembly

Assembly tools

Installation and assembly of the microscope should preferably be carried out together with a member of Leica sales or service staff.

Only a few ordinary screwdrivers are required for assembly, and these are supplied with the microscope.

Assembly of the transmitted light illumination column

Wipe off the interface surface (4.3) with a dry cloth. Tilt the illumination column (4.1) slightly to the back and insert so that the pin (4.2) engages in the groove of the interface surface (4.4).

Erect the TL illumination column and secure with the 4 screws.

When screwing on the TL illumination column, do not hold onto it so that optimal alignment to the optical axis is guaranteed. The angle of tilt of the illumination column can be varied or clamped securely in the vertical position with the knurled screw (5.1).
