Operation 

(continued) 

 

Adjusting the Focus 

To ensure that you obtain sharp images with both eyes, 

(since eyes vary, especially for those wearing glasses) any 

eyesight variation can be corrected in the following 
manner.  Set both diopter collars 

 to “0”. Using your left 

eye only and the 10X objective, focus your specimen by 

adjusting the coarse adjustment knob.  When the image is 

in view, refine the image to its sharpest focus by turning 

the fine adjustment knob.  Rotate the diopter collar to 

obtain the sharpest focus.  To obtain the same sharp 

image using your right eye, do not touch the coarse or fine 

adjustments.  Instead, rotate the right diopter collar until 

the sharpest image appears.  Repeat several times to 

check.   

IMPORTANT: do not counter rotate the focusing knobs as 

this will cause severe problems and damage to the 

focusing system. 
 

Focusing on a Specimen 

To adjust focus, rotate the focus knobs on the right or left 

sides of the microscope to move the objective up and 

down.  Coarse focus 

 and fine focus 

 knobs are 

identified in the figure to the right. 

The figure to the right illustrates the relationship between 

the rotational direction of the focus knobs and the vertical 

motion of the objective. 

Focus travel: The default focus travel from the surface of 

the plain stage is up 7mm and down 1.5mm.  The limit can 

be increased up to 18.5mm by adjusting the limit screw.
