A15.1018 Polarizing Microscope, Transmit Light Instruction Manual To ensure the safety and obtain satisfactory performance, please study this instruction manual thoroughly be fore start to use the instrument.
USER NOTICE Ⅰ.Safety Precautions 1. Carefully open the box, avoid the accessories, like lens, dropping to ground and being damaged. 2. Do keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, dusty and easy shaking environment. Make sure the stage is smooth, horizontal and firm enough.

wipe up the moisture. Do not disassemble any parts of the microscope. That will affect the function or decline the performance of the microscope. Place the instrument in a cool, dry position. After using the microscope, remember to cover it with dust helmet. Do wait for the lamp house cooling completely before cover.

2-2 Detailed Assembly Procedure 2-2-1 Installing the Polarizing Stage Support Device ② 1. Before installing the device, be sure to ① adjust the coarse focus knob①. Make the guide board② (see figure 1) down to the lowest position, so you can install the mechanical stage support device easily.

⑦ 2-2-3 Installing the Objective 1. Adjusting the coarse focus knob until the support device of the mechanical stage reach its low limit position. 2. Insert the 10X objective into the primary hole (which without centering holes on its sides) on the nosepiece, then push the nosepiece clockwise and install other objectives by the sequence of low to high magnification ( figure 5).

Using controls 3-2-1 Stage Rotation When the stage rotation clamping knob ① is loosened, the stage can be rotated horizontally through 360°. 3-2-2 Using 45° Click Stop Lever When the 45° click stop lever② is ① moved toward the observer, and the stage is moved from this position to Fig.10 the first click-stop position, the specimen...
4. Polarized Light Observation 4-1 Adjustments before observation 4-1-1 Focus ② Use the 10×objective to focus. To avoid the ① objective touch with the specimen, you should raise the mechanical stage and let the specimen close to the objective, then slowly separating them to focus.

3. Moving the specimen only, move a new specimen detail into the cross line center. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 several times until the center of the stage rotation is in the center of the cross lines, i.e., when rotating the stage, the specimen stays in the center of the cross lines. This concludes centering of the optical axis for the 10X objective, which will act as the reference objective.
Note:If the periphery of the conoscopic image is dark, move the condenser vertically to find the position where the periphery is brightest. 5.Technical Specifications 1.
