TThhee eeyyeesshhaaddeess ((ooppttiioonnaall))
The eyepieces can be equipped with optional rubber eyeshades. They prevent damage to the eyepiece and prevent
stray light. The eyeshade can simply be slipped over the eyepiece
Connecting the power adapter
The MicroBlue series supports a wide range of operating voltages: from 100 to 240V. Please use a grounded power
connection
1. Make sure the power switch is off before connecting
2. Insert the connector of power cord into the MicroBlue power socket, and make sure it connects well
3. Insert the other connector of the adapter into the mains socket, and make sure it connects well

damaged, choose one with the same specifications
Operation
Setting up the illumination:
For optimal contrast and resolution one should follow the
procedure below:
A. Place a specimen on the object stage and focus, using the
4x objective, with a fully opened iris diaphragm
B. Turn light intensity to lowest position, then look through
the eyepiece(s) and turn up to the comfortable light
intensity level
C. Turn the condenser in the highest position
D. Close the iris diaphragm, until it is just visible on the edge
of the field of view
The microscope is properly set for use with the 4x objective. For
each other magnification in bright field use, this procedure should be repeated to ensure the best balance between
contrast and resolution
CCaauuttiioonn :
The maximum light intensity when using the 4x and 10x can damage the eyes!

Place the specimen slide
On the MB.1001 the slide is placed beneath the object clips. On the other models into the clamp of the mechanical
stage and can be carefully moved into X- and Y- directions (M)
1. Push the arm of the specimen holder backwards
2. Release the arm slowly clamping the slide with the cover glass facing up
3. Rotating the X and Y-axis knob will move the specimen to the center for alignment with the center of the
objective
Focusing and slide protection
1. Select the 4x objective and make sure that it is placed correctly in the optical path
2. Rotate the coarse adjustment knob to top, observe
the right eyepiece with your right eye. Rotate the
coarse focusing knob until the image appears
3. Rotate the fine focusing knob to sharpen the image
4. When you perform focusing with a S100x objective,
you need to lock the slide protection screw (D). The
slide protection screw protects the slide by limiting
the travel range of the mechanical stage. This way
the objectives will not touch or break your slides. In
case a standard version is purchased, including a
S100x objective, this is pre-set at the factory
Eyepieces
A binocular (or trinocular) tube is less tiring for the eyes compared to a monocular tube. In order to obtain a smooth
“compound” image, we recommend you to go through the steps below
1. The interpupillary distance
The correct interpupillary distance is reached when one round image is seen in the field of view (see image below). This
distance can be set by either moving the tubes towards each other or moving them away from each other. This distance
is different for each observer and thus should be set individually. When more users are working with the microscope it
is recommended to remember your interpupillary distance for a quick set-up during new microscopy sessions
2. The correct eye point
The eye point is the distance from the eyepiece to the user’s pupil. To obtain the correct eye point, move the eyes
towards the eyepieces until a sharp image is reached at a full field of view
