Operation
Setting up the illumination:
For optimal contrast and resolution one should follow the
procedure below:
A.
Place a specimen on the object stage and focus, using the
4x objective, with a fully opened iris diaphragm
B.
Turn light intensity to lowest position, then look through
the eyepiece(s) and turn up to the comfortable light
intensity level
C.
Turn the condenser in the highest position
D.
Close the iris diaphragm, until it is just visible on the edge
of the field of view
The microscope is properly set for use with the 4x objective. For
each other magnification in bright field use, this procedure should be repeated to ensure the best balance between
contrast and resolution

The maximum light intensity when using the 4x and 10x can damage the eyes!
