ACCU-SCOPE 3000-LED 2x Objective and Diffuser Supplement
Product Information
The 2x Objective & Diffuser Supplement is designed for use with the 3000-LED and EXC-350 Microscope Series. It consists of two components: the diffuser slider (CAT #00-3222-2X) and the 2x objective (CAT #00-3172-PL). Please note that these components are sold separately.
The diffuser slider is recommended for use with the 2x objective to provide even specimen illumination across the entire field of view. The slider can be easily inserted into the filter slider slot of the Abbe condenser, which is provided with the 3000LED and EXC-350 microscope.
Product Usage Instructions
- Start by installing the 2x objective in the nosepiece of the microscope. Place it in the open position adjacent to the 4x objective.
- Turn the 2x objective into the light path.
- Remove the slider blank from the condenser slot.
- Slide the diffuser slider into the condenser filter slider slot from the right side to the left side. Make sure that the writing on the slider is facing upwards, and the handle is on the right.
- When using the 2x objective for observation, slide the diffuser slider all the way in to place the diffuser in the light path. You will feel a positive detent on the slider, which will help you find the correct position.
- For observations with 4x and higher objectives, you can pull the diffuser slider partially out until the open position is in the light path. Again, a detent on the slider will assist you in finding the correct position. Note that the slider does not need to be removed during most observations but can be easily removed and reinserted as necessary.

Installation & Operation
Install the 2x objective in the nosepiece, typically in the open position
adjacent to the 4x objective.
Select the 10x objective and perform Köhler illumination as described in the
manual that came with the microscope. Open the field diaphragm completely.
Turn the 2x objective into the light path.
Remove the slider blank ❹ from the condenser slot.
Slide the diffuser slider into the condenser filter slider slot from the right
side to the left side. The writing should be up, and the handle on the right.
When using the 2x objective for observation, slide the diffuser slider all the
way in to place the diffuser in the light path. A positive detent on the
slider will help to find the “in” position.
When using 4x and higher objectives, the diffuser slider can be pulled
partially out until the open position is in the light path. A detent on the
slider will help to find the “out” position. The slider does not need to be
removed during most observations but is easily removed and reinserted as
necessary.
