Note:
At the 4-fold and 5-fold filter turrets, the num-
bers are right below the mounting. At the 8-fold
turret, the numbers are on the bottom of the
disc.
• Push the retention pin (30a.2 or 30b.2) and
continue to turn the filter turret until you
reach the next locking position.

inserted, close the front cover plate again.

At the Leica DM6000 M, 2 positions for bright
field and dark field reflector cubes may be set
(depending on configuration).

Filter cubes that are not included in shipment
have to be learned in with the Software Leica
Application Suite (LAS), module: Set-up.
