Fig. 8. Moving the specimen The stage attachment features an XY control system. The control knobs are coaxial – they are located on the same axis. The knob 2 controls longitudinal (Y-axis) movement, the knob 3 controls lateral (X-axis) movement. Moving range: 77mm in Y-axis direction and 112mm in X-axis direction. -
Page 16: Adjusting The Diopter
When using high magnification objectives, raise the objective all the way up by rotating the coarse focusing knob and enable the coarse focusing lock knob. After that, focus on the specimen using the fine focusing knob. Adjust the coarse focusing tension. The tension of the coarse focusing knob is adjustable and is preset by the manufacturer for convenient use. -
Page 17: Calculating The Total Magnification
CALCU LATI N G T HE TOTAL M AGN IF I CAT I ON The total magnification is the eyepiece power multiplied by the objective power. For example, if the eyepiece is 10х/22mm, and the objective is 40х/0.60, the total magnification of the microscope is 10х40 = 400х. -
