® STEINDORFF 11. Using small amount of oil immersion is enough. The redundant oil will adhere to stage or condenser and these will reduce microscope’s performance. Get rid of the redundant oil or clean the lens by using ether or pure alcohol according to this instruction. Pay attention during process as these things are incentive The instruction you buy may not including some products mentioned in this instruction.

® STEINDORFF 2.2. Eyepiece: WF10X/20mm: Total magnification Total magnification = Eyepiece’s magnification × objective’s magnification Numerical aperture (N.A.) N.A. value will affect resolution and image’s brightness, it is the leading parameter for objectives. N.A. = n × sin α n stands for refractive index of the medium between objective and specimen or condenser (air or oil immersion) α...

® STEINDORFF 3. Mount the binocular head Loosen the fixing screw in the eye tubes and insert the binocular head into the eye tubes. Then tighten the screw. 4. Mount the blue filter Take out the filter from the bottom of condenser and mount it in the bracket, then move the bracket into the condenser.

® STEINDORFF Left and right eyepiece should be replaced together when replacing to use 15X eyepiece to keep the same magnification between left and right eye tubes. Notice: The 10X eyepiece should touch the end of eye tube. The “O” scale should be consistent with standard line when the eyepieces are inserted in or pulled out of the eye tubes.

® STEINDORFF 5. OPERATION 1. Illumination Turn on the power supply (turn the switch to “-“) then the bulb will be on. The lightness can be adjusted by turning the adjusting knob. 2. Interpupillary range Adjust the siedentopf binocular to make sure that view field in the right and left eyepiece is consistent.

Adjusting aperture diaphragm Adjust the aperture diaphragm adjusting shaft for condenser till the position which stands for the magnification of objective Adjust the aperture diaphragm 8.1. Adjust the aperture diaphragm by the adjusting shaft. The brightness and resolution will be decrease while the contrast and depth of view will increase if the diameter of aperture diaphragm reduces.

® STEINDORFF 10. Adjusting the coarse focusing knob’s tension The tension of coarse focusing knob is adjustable. Please turn the tension controlling ring of the coarse focusing knob clockwise then the tension will be increased. This ring is near the coarse focusing knob. If you want decrease the tension, please turn the ring counterclockwise.
