OPERATION (cont.)

USING THE 5-HOLE DIAPHRAGM

1. To obtain the best contrast for observing, match the hole size to  

    the objective that is being used to view the specimen. 

2. Each hole has a corresponding number from 1 to 5. 1 is the    

    smallest hole; 5 is the largest hole.

    Use the following guidelines to match the hole number to the  

    objective that you have selected: 

    40x objective: Use #5 hole

    10x objective: Use #4 or #3 hole

      4x objective: Use #2 or #1 hole

2. To adjust the knob loosen or tighten the nut.
