    The interpupillary distance is adjusted by rotating the eyepiece tubes 3 (Fig. 1) in the range of 48–75mm. The distance between the eyepieces matching the observer's interpupillary distance is marked on the adjustment scale. For convenience, the microscope head is inclined at 30°. Microscope head magnification: 1x.

If not, do not switch on the microscope. Improper input voltage may result in a short circuit or fire. Set the filter turret wheel 2 (Fig.
  • Page 18: Adjusting The Eyepiece Tubes

    Looking into the right eyepiece (with the left eye closed) and lowering the stage slowly, bring the image into sharp focus using the coarse 2 and fine 1 focusing knobs. The tension of the coarse focusing knob is adjustable and is preset by the manufacturer for convenient use. If you need to adjust the tension of the coarse focusing knob, rotate the coarse focusing tension adjusting knob 4.

    The adjustment range is ±5 diopters. The number on the ring corresponds to the diopter adjustment of the eyes. The indicator on the side is used for marking. We recommend memorizing your diopter adjustment value for future reference. Adjust the distance between the eyepieces to your interpupillary distance by rotating the eyepiece tubes around the central axis until you see a single circular image when looking through the eyepieces with both eyes.

    – Open the field diaphragm 3 until it just disappears outside of the field of view. Additional centering may be required. – Remove the eyepiece from the right tube with no diopter adjustment and, while observing the objective exit pupil, open the aperture diaphragm to 2/3 of the objective exit pupil.

    – Set the beam splitter lever 4 to the eyepiece position. While observing the specimen through the eyepieces, find a distinctive point in the field of view (an easily identifiable target, such as point S in Fig. 12а), move the specimen on the stage so that the point is in the center of the field of view, as shown in Fig.

    Use the "shutter" position when you have completed the observations or during a break in order to avoid excessive excitation light exposure and prevent the specimen from fluorescence fading. Use the "neutral matt density" position in case of prolonged light exposure or under intense illumination of the specimen, which may distort the specimen configuration and affect the image quality and microscopy results.

    – Place a drop of immersion oil on the coverslip, place the 100х objective into the optical path and focus on the specimen. You should see the darkfield effect in the field of view (brightly shining particles of the specimen on a dark background).
