This is description of this part:
Original stage fixing spring-loaded screw for mounting the microscope stage to the stage holder of Carl Zeiss Jena microscopes from the L-Stativ series.
The last photo shows which element is being offered.
Fits among others the following Carl Zeiss Jena microscope models:
- Lumipan
- Lg
- Lr
- Lu
Note - production of the L-Stativ series microscopes began before World War II and continued into the 1950s. Over the years, small design details changed, including the method of mounting the microscope stage. Microscope models that have a non-removable stage (screwed to the stand) do not have and do not need such a spring screw.
What is this part needed for?
- Sometimes this screw is missing in used microscopes.
- Very often, the tiny screw in this element is broken or missing.
- This element often has dried grease.
- This screw is often damaged because when it wouldn't turn due to dried grease, someone used pliers to turn it.
