Rotating Stage and Insert Frames for Coverslips

The rotating stage (Fig. 30) is also mounted with 3 screws (30.2). Rotate the stage to make all of the threaded holes accessible. Insert the screws (30.2).

!Caution:

Use additional washers (30.3) for the rear holes. Tighten the screws only lightly, as the rotating stage must be centered first: insert the adjusting aid into the rotating stage for this purpose. Acti- vate the Bertrand lens and focus, or use a fo- cusing telescope (Fig. 32). Move the stage until the bright circle is in the middle of the field of view. Next, tighten the stage, swing the Bertrand lens out and remove the adjusting aid.
