  • Page 2 (unseen) The eyepieces and objectives on VanGuard Microscopes are coated. They should never be wiped while dry as any dirt or dust will scratch the coating. The surfaces should either be blown off with an air canister, or blown and cleaned with an air-bulb and camel-hair brush. It is recommended to then use a lens cleaner. Apply with Upper Illuminator a cotton swab for a minimum of wetting, then wipe the surface clean with a quality lens tissue.
