ABOUT THE DIGITAL MICROSCOPE Your new digital stereomicroscope incorporates a built in camera that utilizes ultra high-speed data transmission made possible through a simple plug and play USB 2.0 cable. Your stereoscopic microscope can be used independent of the camera so that you can view 3-dimensional objects, inspect or assemble small parts, and for dissection of biological specimen.
14. HEAD: Viewing head with 45 degree inclined eyepieces. 15. SLIDING ROD: Rod controls optical path of right OPTICAL GROUP OF LENSES. When control rod is pushed in, the image of specimen is directed into left and right eyepieces of the microscope. When control rod is pulled out the image of specimen is directed to camera and to left eyepiece, no image will be visible through right eyepiece.
C. There are three rocker type light controls located on top surface of microscope base. MAIN = Turns power on and off “I” = Turns incidental light on (top illumination) “T” = Turns transmitted light on (substage illumination) NOTE: USE TRANSMITTED ILLUMINATION ONLY WITH FROSTED GLASS STAGE PLATE AND BLUE FILTER IN PLACE.

MECHANICAL MAINTENANCE The only mechanical adjustment the microscope might require is the tension of the focusing mechanism. This has been adjusted at the factory, but over the course of time it may loosen and cause the head of the microscope to slip downward on the focusing block.
