Care and maintenance
•
Never, under any circumstances, look directly at the Sun through this device without a special filter, or look
at another bright source of light or at a laser, as it may cause PERMANENT RETINAL DAMAGE and may lead to
BLINDNESS.
•
Stop using the device if the lens fogs up. Do not wipe the lens! Remove moisture with a hair dryer or point the
telescope downward until the moisture naturally evaporates.
•
Do not touch the optical surfaces with your fingers. Clean the lens surface with compressed air or a soft lens
cleaning wipe. To clean the device exterior, use only the special cleaning wipes and special tools that are
recommended for cleaning the optics.
•
Replace the dust cap over the front end of the telescope whenever it is not in use. Always put eyepieces in
protective cases and cover them with caps. This prevents dust or dirt from settling on the mirror or lens surfaces.
•
Lubricate the mechanical components with metal and plastic connecting parts. Components to be lubricated:
• Optical tube;
• Fine mechanics (focuser rail, telescope optical tube microfocuser);
• Mounting;
•
Worm-and-worm pairs, bearings, cogs, threaded mounting gears.
Use all-purpose silicon-based greases with an operating temperature range of −60 … +180°С (−76 … +356°F).
•
After unpacking your microscope and before using it for the first time check for integrity and durability of every
component and connection.
•
Protect the device from sudden impact and excessive mechanical force. Do not apply excessive pressure when
adjusting focus. Do not overtighten the locking screws.
•
Abrasive particles, such as sand, should not be wiped off lenses, but instead blown off or brushed away with a soft
brush.
•
Do not use the device for lengthy periods of time, or leave it unattended in direct sunlight. Keep the device away
from water and high humidity.
•
Be careful during your observations, always replace the dust cover after you are finished with observations to
protect the device from dust and stains.
•
If you are not using your microscope for extended periods of time, store the objective lenses and eyepieces
separately from the microscope.
•
Do not try to disassemble the device on your own for any reason. For repairs and cleaning of any kind, please
contact your local specialized service center.
•
Store the device in a dry, cool place away from hazardous acids and other chemicals, away from heaters, open
fire, and other sources of high temperatures.
•
If a part of the device or battery is swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
• Children should use the device under adult supervision only.
CAUTION! CHOKING HAZARD! These devices include small parts. The microscope and telescope are designed
for children over 5 years of age and should only be used under adult supervision.

Using the microscope
Getting started
• Unpack the microscope and make sure all parts are available.
•
Make sure the batteries are correctly installed in the battery compartment; insert new batteries if required (fig. 3).
•
Put the microscope on a level surface and switch on the light. You can use the microscope without the light, using
a mirror. Put it next to the source of the bright light (a window or a desk lamp). Turn the mirror to the source of
light — a bright spot of light shall be seen in the eyepiece (fig. 2).
