Microscope parts

Base. It supports the weight of the microscope and houses the illumination source, electronics and control

and easily.

Stage. Sturdy and reliable stage with two specimen holders can be used to move your slides while observing them.

The lower illumination light passes through the opening in the middle of the stage.

Diaphragm disk. Is located below the stage and has apertures of various diameter to adjust the passing light rays.

Rotate the disk to select the desired aperture.

Focusing knob. A coarse focusing system allows moving the stage up and down adjusting the sharpness of the

specimen image.

Upper illumination. LED illumination with adjustable brightness can be powered by 2 AA batteries. The lower

illuminations is used to observe transparent objects. Using a supplemental light source, such as a table lamp, directed

at the specimen will enable you to observe less transparent objects.

• Slowly adjust the illumination brightness, from dark to light.

• Select the 4x objective rotating the revolving nosepiece.

• Move the specimen to place its thickest part exactly under the objective.

• Rotate the focusing knob to slowly raise the stage until the objective is close to the specimen; keep checking the

distance between the objective and the object to avoid their contact.

CAUTION: The objective should not touch the specimen, otherwise the objective or/and the specimen might be

damaged.
