If your new Leica microscope has already been assembled and commissioned by your Leica consultant, click here to skip through the instal- lation instructions and go directly to the Quick Start Guide on Page 63.

If, on the other hand, you are assembling the microscope yourself, continue with the "Assembly" chapter, which begins on Page 19.

For everything you need to know about the correct use of fluorescence-related parts, refer to Page 114.
