How to
Install the MA915
Polarizer Set onto MT Series Microscopes
Simple polarized
light microscopy can be added to your MT4000, MT5000, or MT6000 Series microscope. Polarized light will allow
yet another contrasting method to be used with your microscope. It is often used to identify different types of biological
or organic crystalline structures or to view stress in molded or machined translucent materials.

First, remove the viewing head by loosening the thumbscrew and place it gently on the table.
Install the smaller component which is the analyzer as shown in the photo into the limb or arm of the microscope.
Orient the analyzer so that the index mark (white dot) is facing the microscope user as shown in the photo.

Re-attach the viewing head and re-tighten the thumbscrew snuggly.

Mount
the polarizer onto the top of the
lamphouse lens, carefully slipping it
into place.
The installation is complete.
Some samples or specimens will not react at all to polarized light while others
may exhibit wild kaleidoscopic effects.
