Assembly and set up
Carefully remove the microscope body from the box and set it on a sturdy, flat surface. Remove the microscope head from the box and secure it to the body with the head locking screw, using care not to overtighten.
Remove the plastic covers from the eyepiece holders on the microscope's head, then place eyepieces into the holders. You may choose at this time to insert the eyepiece adapter into the trinocular camera port on the top of the microscope and place either a third eyepiece into it or mount an eyepiece camera (not included). Locate the power adapter and attach it to the microscope, then plug it in. Turn the microscope on by pressing the power button on the back of the base.
Using the microscope
Turn the microscope on and use the Illumination Intensity Control Wheel to set the lamp on the lowest brightness setting.
Secure a slide into the precision-engineered slide holder on the microscope stage. Utilize the ergonomic X-Y translational control knobs located on the right side of the stage to expertly maneuver the stage front to back or the slide holder left to right to perfectly center the specimen over the bulb for optimal illumination.
Adjust the binocular eyepieces by moving them closer together or further apart until a single, clear image appears when you look through them. Modify the bulb brightness to a comfortable intensity with the intuitive dimmer wheel. Additionally, another user can effortlessly view the image simultaneously using an eyepiece equipped with the trinocular port.
Commence with the lowest power objective lens, specifically the 4X objective, precisely centered over the stage. Peer through the eyepieces and gradually bring the image into focus by slowly rotating the substantial coarse adjustment focus knob to elevate the stage closer to the objective. Once the preliminary image is established, transition to the precise blue fine adjustment focus knob for fine-tuning to achieve unparalleled clarity or to explore the intricate layers of the specimen under scrutiny. You may also utilize the diopter adjustment control on the eyepiece holder at this time to further
refine image clarity. Navigate other sections of the slide by deftly using the X-Y translational control knobs to move the slide holder once the specimen is in focus.
Enhance magnification prowess by rotating the nosepiece clockwise to a higher magnification objective, ensuring caution not to make contact with the slide, which may compromise the glass on the slide, thus preserving its integrity. the objective, or both. If you cannot move the objective into place without making contact with the slide, use the coarse focus knob to move the stage down and away to make room before changing magnification.
Adjust the focusing ring on the iris aperture diaphragm to change the resolution of the image. The condenser can be manually moved closer to or farther from the stage by rotating the metal knob.
For best results with the 100X objective, use the included immersion oil. Rotate the nosepiece so that the 100X objective is near, but not on the specimen slide. Then place a drop of the included immersion oil onto the cover slip. Slowly rotate the 100X objective into place so that it comes into contact with the immersion oil. Adjust focus until your specimen comes clearly into view. (Note: Immediately after use, always gently wipe the oil off of the objective lens and the cover slip with lens paper moistened with a small amount of ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Do not use immersion oil with the 4X, 10X, or 40X objectives.)
The swing-in and swing-out filter holder is at the bottom of Abbe condenser. Swing it out and place a 32mm diameter filter into it, taking care that dust, dirt and fingerprints do not get on the filter and the field lens.
Mounting a camera attachment
Place the eyepiece adapter into the trinocular camera port on the top of the microscope Effortlessly connect your eyepiece camera directly onto the microscope with intuitive design, making sure you're always ready for the most precise observations. (Camera not included) For enthusiasts of C-mount cameras, simply unscrew the top ring on the eyepiece adapter to accommodate a seamless fit. (Camera not included) Next, employ it as a 1X C-mount, perfectly calibrated for your camera's needs.
Our microscopes are crafted with precision; the parfocality between eyepieces and the trinocular port is expertly preset for your convenience. However, if necessary, you have the flexibility to adjust by simply rotating the parfocal ring on the eyepiece adapter, ensuring perfect vision alignment. Adjust the height position smoothly to achieve desired parfocality. Achieve the utmost precision and clarity with ease.
