To fold up the microscope for storage, first the tube and draw tube are pushed all the way towards the stage. Then the foot is folded back on the pillar. The mirror stem then is raised up parallel with the body tube. Then the pillar, (with the foot folded on top of it), is then folded backward on the inclination joint.
