Page 10: Assembly
4 Assembly The first step is to position the microscope stand on a firm, level surface. The holder is firmly attached to the pillar of the stand. You can then fit the microscope head to the holder, by passing the objective through the holder ring until the rest of the head is above the ring. - Page 11 Additional optional attachments: The eye cups supplied with the microscopes can be fitted to the eyepieces. (see section 5.6). You can fit a C-mount adapter to the appropriate connection point on the top of the microscope head. This enables you to fit and use digital cameras. (remove protective cap first) (see section 5.9).

Page 12: Operation And Functionality
As soon as the lefthand and righthand visual fields exactly overlap each other, this is the correct interpupillary distance. 5.3 Adjusting the magnification As the KERN OZG 497 series covers stereo zoom microscopes, then you adjust the magnification using the two zoom adjustment wheels on the lefthand and righthand side of the microscope head. -
Page 13: Dioptre Adjustment And Focussing
5.4 Dioptre adjustment and focussing A special feature of stereo microscopes is that they are fitted with an optical unit which has a relatively high depth of field. In order to be able get the most benefit from this feature, each user must synchronise the focussing mechanisms for themselves. The steps to do this are described in the following section. -
Page 14: Adjusting The Stand
For tilting the microscope you have to push or pull strongly along the tilt direction on the column of the stand (see figure below). Due to the sluggishness of the hinge an additional fixation is not needed. Tilt function OZG 497 OZG_497-BA-e-1510... -
Page 15: Using Eye Cups / High Eye Point Eyepieces
5.6 Using eye cups / High Eye Point eyepieces The eye cups supplied with the microscope can basically be used at all times, as they screen out intrusive light, which is reflected from light sources from the environment onto the eyepiece, and the result is better image quality. But primarily, if eyepieces with a high eye point (particularly suitable for those who wear glasses) are used, then it may also be useful for users who don’t wear glasses, to fit the eye cups to the eyepieces. -
Page 16: Lighting Control
5.7 Lighting control A main switches fitted on the left rear of the stand basis ensures that the device will be supplied with power when the plug is connected. As far as the goose neck is attached, the light source, originally intended for the transmitted lighting, provides also the incident lighting. -
