Rotary stage and insert frame for coverslips

The rotary stage is secured with 3 screws. The rotary mount has to be moved to make all the screw holes accessible. Align the screws (51.2).

!n. b.:

Washers (51.3) should be used as well for the back drill holes. Only screw the screws in lightly, as the rotary stage first has to be pressed into the centre. This is done by inserting the centration aid (51.4) into the rotary stage. Engage the Bertrand lens by turning the knurl and focus with the lever. Move the stage until the bright circle is in the centre of the field of view. Then secure the stage in position, disengage the Bertrand lens and remove the centration aid. To secure specimen slides in the frame inserts (52.1), press on the middle of the leaf spring (52.2) and slide in the coverslip in the direction of the arrow. Clamp the frame insert in the object guide (51.1).

Connecting the microscope to the mains

When you have installed all the components as described, you can connect the microscope to the power supply with the mains cable.

If you have the manual version of the DM IRB, installation is now complete and you can jump to the “Operation” chapter.

If you have a DM IRB/E model (i. e. the electronic version), you have to set up the system.

The following chapter describes how to set up the electronic version of the DM IR: the DM IRB/E.
