1 WF 10x Eyepiece
2 45° inclined monocular head
3 Objective
4 Illumination (LED)

plate)
6 Stage clips
7 Focus knob
8 On/off switch
9 Battery compartment
10 Mounting screws
11 Diffusion cap
Location
Before you start, choose an ideal loca-
tion for using your microscope. It is
important that you have enough light
available (window, desk lamp).
Simple Observation
Turn the focus knob (7) to the up-
per stop. Now, place an object on the
stage (5), directly under the objective
(1). When you take a look through the
eyepiece, you can see the magnified
object. At this point, you still might
see a slightly fuzzy picture. Adjust the
image sharpness by slowly turning the
focus knob (7).
Rotatable object plate
Test with which plate side (black or
white) your object can be viewed best.
Illumination
For observation with the electronic
light source (4) you need to insert
2 AA batteries 1.5 V, in the battery
compartment (9) on the base of the
microscope. The battery compartment
is opened using a Phillips screwdriver.
Insert the batteries with the correct
polarity (+/- indication). Put the bat-
tery cover first into the small opening
so that the lid fits perfectly. Now you
can tighten the screw. You can not turn
on the light (4) with the on/off switch
(8) on the base of the microscope.
