c) Keep the microscope away from dust. When it is not used, please put the dust cover
over it.
d) Keep the microscope away from vibration.
2) Insert the micro-slide specimen into the clamp(5). Be sure that the cover glass is
facing towards the objective. Otherwise you will not be able to focus your specimen at
using higher powered objective(40X, or 100X).
3) Place a lower powered objective(4X, or 10X) into position and simply turn on the
illuminator.
Caution:
The power supply voltage must be fitted to the microscope; Otherwise it will
damage the circuit and bulb, even lead to insecurity.
4) Rotate the knobs(14,15) to move the specimen so that it is centred over the in-stage
condenser.
5) Focus the objective on the specimen by turning the coarse focusing knob(24) until the
image of your specimen is bright and clear. You can find the focal plane and focusing
upwards by using the lower powered objective, and then you can bring the specimen into
sharp focus by turning the fine focusing knob(23).
6) The specimen now is in sharp focus. Rotate the nosepiece(1) to the other objectives
and focus using only the fine focusing knob(23). Since the optics on the microscopes are
Par-focal and Par-centered, only slightly turn the fine focusing knob(23) to make the image
bright and clear.
Note:
It is important to note that the 4X and 10X objectives can never come into
contacting with your micro-slide specimen because of our built-in stop. The 40X
and 100X objectives may occasionally touch the micro-slide specimen. But because
they have retractable mounts, the micro-slide specimen will not be damaged.
7) To make the image clearer, you can adjust diameters of the iris diaphragm to match
with the numerical aperture of objective in use(Sction 8. ABBE condenser in P.5).
E) Trouble Shooting:
If there are some troubles in oberating, recheck the instrument carefully as the following
describing before connect us or our representative in you area.
1) Troubles in operating:
Can't focus in using high powered
objective.
The specimen is mounted on the
stage upside down or the cover
glass is too thick.
Reverse the specimen or choose the
standard cover glass(0.17mm).
The objective always touches with
the slide when changing.
The cover glass is too thick.
Choose the standard cover glass
(0.17mm).
Move the specimen no smoothly.
The clamp is not fixed stably.
Fix the clamp stably on the stage.
Interpupillary distance is not
correctly adjusted.
Dioper adjusting is incomplete.
The brightness is not suitable.
Checkthe illuminator and adjust its
brightness.
The specimen goes out of focus.
Adjust the the upper focusing limit.
Troubles
Causes
Remedies
The stage is limitted too low.
The slide is often broken by
objective

Adjust the the upper focusing limit.
The stage is limitted too high.
Incomplete binocular vision.
Correct the interpupillary distance .
Complete the dioper adjusting.
