Illumination

With the microscope turned on, rotate the light
①
adjustment knob until the illumination is
comfortable for observation. Rotate the light
adjustment knob clockwise to raise the voltage
and brightness. Rotate the light adjustment knob
counterclockwise to lower the voltage and
brightness (see Fig. 6).
Placing the Specimen Slide
①
Push the slide finger
backwards.
②
Place the slide into the slide holder with the
cover glass facing up and release the slide
finger so it closes and secures the slide in place.
Rotate the X and Y-axis knobs ③ to move the
slide into position. (Fig. 7)
Adjusting the Focus
To ensure that you obtain sharp images with both
eyes (since eyes vary, especially for those wearing
glasses) any eyesight variation can be corrected in
the following manner: set both diopter collars to
"0". Using your left eye only and the 10X objective,
focus your specimen by adjusting the coarse
adjustment knob ① . When the image is in view,
refine the image to its sharpest focus by turning
the fine adjustment knob ② . Rotate the diopter
collar to obtain the sharpest focus. To obtain the
same sharp image using your right eye, do not
touch the coarse or fine adjustments. Instead,
rotate the right diopter collar until the sharpest
image appears. Repeat several times to check.
NOTE: do not counter rotate the focusing knob as
this will cause severe problems and damage to the
focusing system. (Fig. 8)
