Fasten achromates to the fin focusing (4.5) by
means of the adapter.
2.7 Objectives
We recommend using the 1×, 2×, 0.8×, 0.5×
planapochromatic objectives, in order to take
advantage of the high performance of the
apochromatic zoom system.
Use the objectives directly on the diaphragm ring
of the zoom system or with fine focusing.
Remove the diaphragm ring if the fine focusing is
used (see below).
A planapochromatic 5× HR objective is available
for magnifications in the microrange (see assem-
bly diagram p. 10). Always use the HR objective
with fine focusing.
The Leica M series 0.63×, 0.5×, 0.32× achromatic
objectives, which can be attached to the
diaphragm ring of the zoom system or the fine
focusing using an adapter (see assembly dia-
gram on p. 10), can also be used.
Diaphragm ring
At the bottom of the zoom system is a diaphragm
ring (4.4). The diaphragm ring must be removed if
fine focusing is used.
Objective zoom system
Fasten planapochromatic objective (4.3) counter-
clockwise on the diaphragm ring of the zoom
system (4.4).
Or:
Fasten achromates to the diaphragm ring of the
zoom system (4.4) by means of the adapter.
Objective fine focusing zoom system
Loosen 3 hexagon-head screws (4.6) at
diaphragm ring (4.4) and remove diaphragm ring.
Tighten the fine focusing (4.5) with 3 hexagon-
head screws (4.7) to the zoom system (4.2).
Fasten planapochromatic objective (4.3) counter-
