IMPORTANT
· This product is a slim, single type condenser that can be combined with a top lens matching the desired observation (dry,
oil-immersed or water-immersed).
· The water-immersed top lens (IX2-TLW) features an NA of 0.9, WD or 3.7 mm and manipulator access angle of 40°. In high-
resolution DIC (Differential Interference Contrast) observation, these features allow injection operation to be performed
simultaneously.
1Getting Ready
1. This manual pertains only to the DIC condenser. Please also read the instruction manual for the IX2 series (IX81/IX71/IX51)
or IX series (IX70/IX50) microscope to understand the comprehensive operating instructions of the microscope system.
2. The DIC condenser is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.
3. Be careful not to leave dirt or fingerprints on the lens components.
4. The stopper mechanisms provided for the functions indicate the limits of motion. Never attempt to go beyond a stopper
by applying excessive force.
5. When the PlanApoN60X, UPlanSApo60XO, PlanApo60XO3 and U-DICTHC are combined, (using the U-DIC60HC or U-
DPO60HC DIC prism), color irregularities may be noticeable with certain specimens. Due to this, it is recommended to use
a photo lens (PE3.3X or with a higher magnification) in photomicrography.
6. Do not tighten the clamping screws of the DIC prism and slider too much.
2Maintenance and Storage
1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower and wipe
gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze). If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze
slightly moistened with commercially available absolute alcohol.
Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully. Be sure to keep it away from open
flames or potential sources of electrical sparks -- for example, electrical equipment that is being switched on or off.
Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.
2. Never attempt to disassemble any part of the equipment, for this may degrade the performance.

ASSEMBLY
2-1 Attaching the Top Lens
}According to the desired observation, attach the dry (U-TLD), oil-immersed
(U-TLO) or water-immersed (IX2-TLW) top lens to the DIC condenser.
1. The U-TLD or U-TLO top lens @ can be attached by screwing it clockwise
into the top lens mount ².
2. To attach the IX2-TLW top lens, turn the top lens mount ² counterclock-
wise to remove it and screw in the top lens into the position of the top lens
mount.
Precautions on Oil-Immersed Top Lens
#When a slide glass with thickness of 1.2 mm or more is used, the field
iris diaphragm image may not be observed.
#Use an objective with 20X or higher power.

2-2 Attaching the DIC Prism
}In the DIC prism slider, mount the DIC prism matching the objective, DIC
slider and top lens in use. (For the combination list, see pages 7 to 12.)
Procedure (Figs. 2 & 3)
#To ensure the optical performance, do not tighten the clamping screws
@ and | too much.
1. Loosen the two clamping screws @ by inserting the DIC prism/slider
clamping knob provided with the DIC condenser into each of them.
2. Align the positioning pin of the DIC prism ² with the groove on the slider,
drop the DIC prism into the slider and tighten the two clamping screws @.
3. Turn the DIC prism slider ³ by 180° and insert it into the condenser. Tighten
the slider clamping screw | using the DIC prism/slider clamping knob.
}If the knob ƒ on the DIC slider comes in the way, remove the knob by
turning it counterclockwise.
