Oooh... I just read this (when I googled "repair
Microsight
focuser"); >>>Adjustable eyepiece with air suspended hair
reticle.<<<
"Air suspended hair reticle". I'm supposing I should not
be screwing
this in from the top after removing the eyepiece. Since
it fell out
the bottom, it must have been held there another way.
Those threads
are so fine, I can't seem to get them into it from the
bottom. I
know these can be sent back in for repair, though I hate
to be
without it that long so was hoping to fix it myself.
Maybe Monday I can call and get info from the manufacturer
if nobody
here knows how to fix it.
Still watching and hoping for experienced advice. Thanks.
Janet
The eyepiece is mounted with screw threads to allow
adjusting it for individual eyes. The important part is the
position of the cross hair, this establishes the reference
point for the instrument. If its shifted from its original
position the instrument will no longer be correctly
referenced to the paper. My microsite is packed up because I
have had painters working so I can't look at it right now. I
am not sure how its mounted. I think you have the right idea
about contacting the manufacturer, they may want you to send
it back.
Despite its simplicity I find it the most useful of the
focusing aids.
