(CANON EOS DIGITAL TYPE SHOWN)
Versions for other makes (such
as Nikon) are available.
NOTE: This kit upgrades the Topcon coupler
block for the original Topcon film camera, as
shown on the following pages.
This coupler block is a component of the
original slit lamp instrumen t and not supplied
with this kit. While all Topcon SL-5d and
SL-6e slit lamps are ready to accept this coupler,
not all of them were equipped with this removable,
optional item. If you do not already have the
coupler, you will have to obtain it separately.
This kit does not include a flash synchronization cable.
Digital cameras have sufficient ISO speed to us e the
steady illumination of the instrument for normal photography.
If your application requi re s flash illumination, you must
obtain a flash synchronization cable for your model camera
separately.

Installation Instructions
STEP 1: Remove 4 screws holding old camera mount
to coupler block. Use a good-quality, close-fitting
Philips screwdriver and firm pressure, because the
screws should be thread-locked into the assembly.
Separate the mount assembly from the coupler block.

CAUTION:
The original Topcon screws are extremely tight and
glued in place with a threadlocker compound. Removing these
screws without damage requires proper tools and a firm hand.
If you have any doubt or difficulty in performing this disassembly,
we recommend you send your components to us for installation.
While we can fix things like stripped screw heads in our facility,
this tends to be an expensive repair.
