MICROSCOPE PARTS STAND AND BASE WI TH TR A N SMI T TE D L IG HT IL LU MIN ATO R The stand 6 (Fig.1) is mounted on the base 17 (Fig. 1). The stand is not removable. Inside the stand is the focusing column 11 (Fig. 1), on which the microscope head mount 8 (Fig. 1) is fixed. On top of the stand is the reflected light illumination socket 5 (Fig.
REF L ECT ED LIG HT I LLUM I N ATO R The microscope is designed to be fitted with one of two reflected light illuminators or both: a ring light for shadow-free lighting and an oblique illuminator. The oblique illuminator 20 (Fig. 1) is fixed in the microscope head mount. The illuminator cord is plugged in the socket 5 (Fig.
PL AC IN G THE SP EC IM E N Choose a frosted glass or opaque stage plate based on the object to be viewed and the intended research. The frosted glass stage plate is used for observing transparent and translucent objects in the transmitted and reflected light. Opaque objects are studied in reflected light.
ADJ U STI N G THE E YE P I ECE T UB ES Use the eyepiece diopter adjustment to compensate for the observer's ametropia. Start by setting the diopter adjustment on both eyepieces to the zero. To do this, rotate the ring 2 (Fig. 1) to adjust “0” to the indicator “|”. While looking through the right eyepiece (with your left eye closed), bring the specimen into sharp focus.
USING OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT AU XIL IARY O BJECT I V E LE N SES Screw the required objective lens 19 (Fig. 1) into the thread of the objective part 21 (Fig. 1). The 0.5x reducing objective lens increases the working distance and field of view. The 2x magnifying objective lens reduces the working distance and field of view.
CAM ERA The microscope is designed to observe a specimen through the eyepieces and to photograph the specimen. The trinocular tube 2 is located at the top of the microscope head. When not in operation, it is covered with the dust cover 4.
U SING THE CAL I B R ATI O N SLI D E WI T H A CA M ER A The calibration slide (stage micrometer) is used to calibrate the image analysis software for measurements in actual units. In the calibration mode, you should capture an image of the micrometer scale with every objective magnification and indicate the known distance.
