CARE / MAINTENANCE
1. When using the 100x objective lens place a drop of immersion oil between the objective lens and the cover
slip. When finished with observation, clean the objective lens thoroughly with lens paper.
2. When cleaning dust off of lenses it is best removed with a soft brush or a small puff of air. More persistent
dirt such as oil or fingerprints can be removed with a soft cloth or lens tissue paper moistened slightly with
absolute alcohol or a microscope cleaning solution.
3. Avoid using cleaning solvents to clean the metal or painted parts on the microscope. If needed, use a mild
detergent on these parts.
4. When not in use cover the microscope with the provided dust cover and store in a cool, dry place.
