The illuminator light does not
come on 

Make sure the microscope is plugged into a functional electrical socket.

Make sure the bottom light intensity control is set above “0”.

The bulb may need to be replaced.  

See “Bulb replacement” on page 6.

Unable to bring specimen into focus

Eye lens of the eyepiece is partially unscrewed. Remove the eyepiece and screw the two sections together.

The black turret knob may need to be fully rotated to align the objective lenses into the correct position.

The specimen may not be centered properly on the stage and needs to be re-positioned to be in the optical path. 

Image of the specimen goes out of the 
focus all by itself.

Use the tension control collar to tighten the focusing mechanism found on the focusing spindle.

Focusing knobs turn with difficulty 
even with tension-collar loosened

Microscope should be disassembled, cleaned and re-lubricated by a qualified authorized technician.
