This triple nosepiece with 3 pre-installed objectives allows you to change objectives smoothly
and easily.
Stage.
Sturdy and reliable stage with two specimen holders can be used to move your slides while observing them.
The lower illumination light passes through the opening in the middle of the stage.
Diaphragm disk.
Is located below the stage and has apertures of various diameter to adjust the passing light rays.
Rotate the disk to select the desired aperture.
Focusing knob.
