Microscope assembly
•
Unpack the microscope carefully and place it on a flat surface.
•
Remove the plastic bags and dustproof cover of the eyepiece head.
•
Install the monocular, binocular or trinocular head and tighten the locking screw.
•
Inspect all the items included in the kit and define their purpose.
•
Connect the power cord to the microscope and plug it in.
Use
Please refer to the fig. 1а (monocular model), fig. 1b (binocular model) and fig. 1c (trinocular model).
•
Turn on the power and the illumination will turn on. Set the brightness at approximately 70%. Place the specimen on the
stage. Make sure the clips hold the specimen firmly in place.
•
Iris diaphragm should be adjusted in accordance with numerical aperture of a lens. The best practice is to make the iris
diaphragm slightly smaller than the aperture of the selected lens. Open or close the iris diaphragm using the adjustment
screws. If the adjustment screw is turned to the right, the iris diaphragm is fully open. Note: the diaphragm is not intended
for adjusting the brightness of the illumination. To adjust the brightness, use the brightness adjustment knob.
•
Slide the filter holder, place the filter in it and then return the holder to its initial position.
•
To change the objective magnification, turn the revolving nosepiece until it clicks.
•
Make sure that the lens does not touch the sample when adjusting the focus: rotate the coarse focus knob until the
specimen is about 3.175mm (1/8") away from the lens.
•
Looking into the eyepiece, slowly turn the coarse focusing knob until you can see the image of the observed specimen. Turn
the fine focusing knob to make the image clear. The fine focusing mechanism allows you to focus on the observed specimen
while using high magnifications.
•
When you use an oil immersion objective, the space between the specimen and the lens should be filled with immersion oil.
Raise the condenser to the upper position and put a drop of oil on the lens and on the cover glass of the specimen. Move the
revolving nosepiece back and forth to get rid of air bubbles in the oil. Then, fix the objective lens in its working position.
Make sure that oil fills the entire space between the objective lens and the specimen. After use, wipe the lens dry.
•
To place the specimen in the field of view, move the stage horizontally back and forth or left and right using the stage
moving knob.
•
Look through the right eyepiece with your right eye and adjust the image sharpness with the coarse and fine focusing knobs.
Binocular and trinocular models: Then, look through the left eyepiece with your left eye and rotate the diopter adjustment
ring to equalize the difference between your left and right eyes vision. Remember the setting for future use. Adjust the
distance between the eyepiece tubes of the binocular head so that the image merges into a single circle.
•
Trinocular models: you can install the digital camera to the third eyepiece tube.

screwdriver. Remove the old fuse and install a new one. Only use the appropriate types of fuses. Close the fuse holder.
