KL 300 LED – Operating instructions
2. Operation
2.1 Assembly
A
KL 300 LED is designed for assembly directly on all conventional microscope objectives or swivel
arm stands. Suitable adapters are either enclosed with the light source or are available from the
manufacturer (see Point 5 "KL 300 LED accessories").
First insert the appropriate side of the attachment adapter (A) into the intended socket (5) on the
base of the light source until stop. Then insert both fixing screws (M5) from below through the
groove (B) and tighten using a 3-mm Allen key.
The light source can now be clamped to the microscope objective or swivel arm stand with the
attachment adapter. If necessary, the microscope or the microscope carrier must be taken off and
re-assembled afterwards.
Alternatively, when using flexible light guides, the KL 300 LED can be laid flat on the work surface
without an attachment adapter.
2.2 Light guide connection
B
The light guide is inserted into the light guide socket as far
as the stop (1). To ensure a tight fit and optimum illumination
the groove must click into the retaining slot.
To remove, simply pull the light guide out of the light guide
socket (1).
Please note: When inserting light guides with a locating pin,
care must be taken to ensure that the pin fits into one of the
two guide slots.
