ADJUSTMENT & OPERATION

 (continued)

 

 

 

Darfield stop in closed position 

 

 

Condenser in lower position 

 

Using the Darkfield Stop (optional) 

1.  To view specimens using the Darkfield Stop, rotate the stop into the 

closed position. 

2.  While viewing a specimen, adjust the iris diaphragm open or closed 

to optimize the image.    The specimen should appear mostly white 

on a dark background. 

3.  To view the specimen in brightfield mode, rotate the darkfield stop 

into the open position. 

 

 

NOTE: To move the darkfield stop in or out of the light path, you 

may need to lower the condenser.    To lower the condenser, 

grasp the metal ring 

 on the condenser and rotate 

counterclockwise (to the left).    After changing the position of 

the darkfield stop, raise the condenser back to the upper limit 

just below the stage. 

 

2.

Storing the Power Cord 

When the microscope is not in use, the power cord can be wrapped 
around the cord wrap on the back of the microscope, and the power 
charger can be plugged into the socket on the back of the microscope to 
avoid being lost. (See Fig. 17) 

 

Do not use strong force when the power cord is bent or twisted, 
otherwise it will be damaged.   

 

Use the power cord provided with your microscope by 
ACCU-SCOPE.    If it is lost or damaged, a replacement can be 
purchased from ACCU-SCOPE.    Always choose a power cord with 
the same specifications as the original.
