  • Page 5: Storage

    In most cases, if dust and dirt gets inside the optical unit of a microscope this can cause irreversible errors or damage. The best way to store accessories which consist of optical elements, such as, for example, eyepieces and objectives, is in a dry box with desiccant. OSE-42-BA-e-1810...

  • Page 12: Dioptre Adjustment And Focussing

    On one hand, this function can help to make it easier to adjust the focus and on the other hand it can prevent the microscope head from slipping down unintentionally. In this way you can avoid possible damage which could occur if the objective lens and the object being observed should collide. OSE-42-BA-e-1810...
