1.3. Operating the device
1.3.1. Before initial operation: Remove the microscope from the polystyrene packaging, place it on a stable
work surface and remove the plastic packaging materials and the dust caps from the binocular head and
tripod.
1.3.2. Function test and power connection:
Familiarise yourself with your new microscope. Carefully move all
mechanical parts such as the focusing, condenser position, iris diaphragm, filter holder, etc. by hand and
observe how they work. Make sure that the current voltage corresponds to the indicated voltage. Plug the
power supply unit into the domestic power socket and then connect the microscope to the power source.
Caution:
The power supply unit and the power cables must not be damaged in any way to ensure safe use. In the
event of a defect, contact the support department at NIMAX GmbH.
2. Initial operation
2.1.
Switch on the device and adjust the brightness on
the dimmer wheel (16) to a pleasant but required
luminous intensity.
2.2.
Adjust the pinhole on the condenser to change
the light irradiation. Adjust the design-related
aperture (pinhole) of the lenses to achieve the best
possible resolution of the lenses. Please take out the
eyepiece to achieve the best possible resolution of the
lens. The size of the pinhole can now be seen in the
eyepiece tube. It is best if the pinhole is set a little
smaller than the lens aperture.
Caution:
The pinhole is not used to adjust the brightness. This is set with the corresponding dimmer wheel. Light
beam and brightness are not the same thing.
2.3.
Carefully place a slide with a prepared specimen that you wish to view on the stage and fix it in place using
the spring-mounted clamp (8) of the holding device of the cross table.
2.4.
Turn the filter holder (10) outwards. Insert a filter, if needed, and move the holder back to its original
position, i.e. between the light source and the condenser.
