[. . . ] The click stops are set with the supplied Allen wrench on screw (4) (unscrew (4) to activate the click stop, screw it in to deactivate it). To prevent defocusing, clip plastic rings on the drive controls (2) and move the controls from the side. The attachable mechanical stage is always supplied with counterweight (9) which can be screwed on to the stage using the SW3 Allen wrench. It is used for symmetrical weight distribution and prevents defocusing when the stage is rotated. If it is not factory mounted, please refer to the leaflet supplied with the device.

Position turret disk with stop to be changed in the exchange opening and hold it on the knurled ring, since no click stop is effective in this position. Use mounting device contained in tool set to unscrew retainer ring (4) from the condenser underside (2) and allow phase stop (3) to slide out. To insert the new stop, turn condenser round, insert the new stop, and tighten retainer ring. The shiny glass underside of the stop must point downwards when the condenser is inserted. Loosen both centering screws and recenter stop using the centering telescope. Make sure that the correct label is visible on the knurled ring of the turret when the unit is swung into the beam path. Note: Phase or darkfield stops may only be inserted in centerable openings, DIC prisms only in openings with an iris stop. 36) The positions of the DIC prisms are marked with I, II, III. 1 1 2 3 5 4 1 2 3 4 5 Fig. 36 Cover on the underside DIC prism Prism mount Double function tool Groove Changing the DIC prism To loosen the cover on the condenser underside (1), loosen both grub screws using SW 2 screwdriver and remove the cover. Position turret disk with DIC prism to be changed in the exchange opening and hold it on the knurled ring, since no click stop is effective in this position. Screw threaded side (4) of the tool into the prism mount (3) and then pull out the DIC prism. Remove the DIC prism (2) from the tool and screw on the new, required prism.
