Page 4: Before Use
1 Before use 1.1 General notes You must open the packaging carefully, to make sure that none of the accessories in the packaging fall on the floor and get broken. In general, microscopes should always be handled carefully because they are sensitive precision instruments. -
Page 5: Storage
1.3 Storage You should ensure that the device is not exposed to direct sunlight, temperatures which are too high or too low, vibrations, dust or a high level of humidity. The ideal temperature range is between 0 and 40°C and a relative humidity of 85% should not be exceeded. -

Page 9: Assembly
4 Assembly The first step is to position the microscope stand on a firm, level surface. The holder with the head is already on pillar of the stand, but you must always check whether it is fixed securely and that it is in the correct position (preferably centrally and facing to the front). - Page 10 Assembled stereo microscope OSE-4-BA-e-1510...

Page 11: Operation And Functionality
5.3 Adjusting the magnification As the KERN OSE-4 series covers stereo microscopes (without zoom), we will describe how to set the magnification using the integrated and rotating objective. For the devices in this series, you can select between two different magnification factors at any time. -
Page 12: 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 13: Adjusting The Stand
5.5 Adjusting the stand Torque of the focus wheels You can adjust the torque of the focus wheels by turning the ring which is fitted along the axis of the lefthand focus wheel. To do this you need a special wrench which is included with delivery. The ring has holes which the wrench can hook into, so that you can then turn it in the desired direction. -
Page 14: 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 15: Lighting Control
5.7 Lighting control (OSE 413, OSE 414, OSE 416, OSE 417) OSE 413, OSE 414 (reflected light) To operate the reflected light, there is a main switch on the right, rear corner of the stand base surface which you can use to switch the lighting on and off. The light intensity cannot be adjusted. -
Page 16: Using External Illumination Units
The lighting units which are suitable for devices of the OSE-4 series, are goose neck lighting units (see figure). These are available as LED as well as halogen versions and also have an on/off switch or different controller. -
