Important Notes On This Manual - Leica DM R Serie Mode D'emploi

Important notes on this manual

The Leica DM R microscope series consists of
several basic stands and a range of modular
components allowing an almost unlimited
variety of individual outfits.
Therefore this manual has been given a modular
layout as well to show you other possible
configurations besides your own.
The manual is divided into two main chapters:
Assembly (including a brief description of each
component) and
Operation.
Any alterations or additional information are
described on extra pages. There is a
supplementary manual for the automatic
version. The manuals are multilingual. Due to
the spiral binding you can turn the language you
want to the front. The manual can be filed in the
supplied folder with the transparent plastic
tongues.
Text symbols and their meaning:

Special manuals are supplied with some addi-
tional equipment such as photomicrography,
microscope photometry (MPV), compensators,
heating stages, interference attachments, etc.
There are also extensive brochures on micro-
scopy, which can be ordered, as can extra
copies of this manual, from our agencies for a
cover charge.
Numbers in the text, e.g. 1.2, refer to the illustra-
tions, i.e. Fig. 1, pos. 2 in this example.
Attention:
This manual is an integral part of the product
