Page 16: Initial Setup
INITIAL SETUP OBJECTIVES Objectives are factory set. Objectives are par-centered and parfo- calised during assembly. All objectives have been secured for a tight fit to prevent them from coming loose during transit. To remove an objective, rotate it counterclockwise while holding it with a rubber grip to avoid any slippage. -

Applicable bulb: 6V20W Halogen bulb P/N CX-013 Always use the designated bulb. Using a bulb other than those specified by LABOMED may lead to a fore hazard or and low illumination. Fingerprints or stains on the lamp bulb reduce its life. If contamination occurs, wipe bulb surface with a cloth slightly moistened with alcohol. - Page 18 3.

Page 19: Summary Of Bright Field Observation Procedure
SUMMARY OF BRIGHT FIELD OBSERVATION PROCEDURE Flip the main switch to “ON” Place the specimen on the stage. Main switch Fuse Holder Engage the 10X objective in the light path. Bring the specimen in focus. Adjust the observation tube and eyepieces Adjust the interpupillary distance. -
Page 20: Detailed Observation Procedure
DETAILED OBSERVATION PROCEDURE TURNING THE LAMP ON 1. Flip the main switch to “I” (ON) as shown in figure 15. Fig. 15 2. Rotating the light intensity adjustment knob (Fig. 16) in the direction of the arrow increases brightness and rotating knob in the opposite direction decreases brightness. - Page 21 Cover glass Cover glass This is the glass plate paced on the specimen. For optimum optical performance, the cover glass thickness, which is the distance from its surface to the specimen surface, should be 0.17mm. Slide glass Slide glass This glass plate should ideally have a length of 76mm, width of Fig.
- Page 22 ADJUSTING THE INERPUPILLARY DISTANCE (IPD) The inter-pupillary distance adjustment consists of regulating the two eyepieces to align with both eyes’ pupils so that you can observe a single microscope image through two eyepieces in stereo vision. This greatly helps to reduce fatigue and discomfort during observation.
- Page 23 ADJUSTING THE CONDENSER POSITION AND APERTURE IRIS DIAPHRAGM The condenser is most often used in the highest position. If the observed field of view is not bright enough, brightness may be improved by lowering the condenser slightly. Rotate the condenser height adjustment knob (1) in clockwise direction to move the condenser to the highest or desired position.
- Page 24 USING THE 100X IMMERSION OBJECTIVE The designated immersion oil should be in contact with the cover lens of the 100X immersion objective. If not, the specimen will appear distorted and dull. It is recommended that LABOMED immersion oil is always used. Immersion Process 1.
