Assembly
The first step is to position the microscope stand on a firm, level surface .
The holder is firmly attached to the pillar of the stand. The microscope head in turn
is fixed to the holder, so that there is no possibility of spinning it.
Please see section 5.5 for more details on adjusting the stand.
Both eyepieces are already fitted in the tube . You just need to remove the
protective film which covers them.
When doing this make sure that you
do not touch the optical lenses with your
fingers .
In general you should avoid using two eyepieces with different magnifications.
With regard to the use of
transmitted light illumination you must make sure that
the frosted glass stand insert is fitted in the centre of the stand base , so that the
transmitted light can be used correctly.
Additional optional attachments:

The eye cups supplied with the microscopes can be fitted to the eyepieces.
