  2. Ibi: Place the microscope on a stable, level surface, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and vibrations.
  3. Fifi sori ẹrọ ori: If the binocular head is separate, gently insert it into the top of the microscope body and secure it with the exposed thumb screw.
  4. Fifi sii oju: Insert the two 10x 20mm eyepieces into the eyepiece tubes of the binocular head.
  5. Asopọ agbara: Connect the power cord to the microscope's power input and then to a grounded electrical outlet (AC 85V - 240V).

6. Awọn ilana Iṣiṣẹ

  1. Agbara Tan: Flip the power switch located on the base of the microscope. Adjust the illumination intensity using the variable brightness control knob.
  2. Ibi Apeere: Place a prepared microscope slide onto the mechanical stage. Use the stage clips to hold it securely.
  3. Stage gbigbe: Lo awọn XY stage control knobs to position the specimen directly under the objective lens.
  4. Objective Selection: Rotate the revolving nosepiece to select the lowest power objective (e.g., 4x). Ensure the objective clicks firmly into place.
  5. Fojusi:
    • Wo nipasẹ awọn oju-oju.
    • Lo awọn coarse focus knob to bring the specimen into approximate focus.
    • Lo awọn fine focus knob for precise focusing and to achieve a sharp image.
  6. Àtúnṣe Ìjìnnà Àárín-ẹ̀kọ́: Adjust the distance between the eyepieces by gently pushing or pulling them apart until you see a single, circular field of view.
  7. Atunse Diopter: If one eye is clearer than the other, use the diopter adjustment ring on one eyepiece to compensate for differences in vision.
  8. Higher Magnification: Once focused at low power, rotate the nosepiece to a higher power objective (e.g., 10x, 40xS). The microscope is parfocal, meaning only minor adjustments with the fine focus knob should be needed.
  9. Using the 100xS Oil Immersion Objective:
    • After focusing with the 40xS objective, rotate the nosepiece halfway between the 40xS and 100xS objectives.
    • Place a small drop of immersion oil directly onto the specimen slide where the light passes through.
    • Rotate the 100xS objective into the oil drop. The objective should be immersed in the oil.
    • Use only the fine focus knob to bring the image into sharp focus. Do not use the coarse focus knob with the 100xS objective.
    • After use, clean the 100xS objective and the slide immediately with lens paper and a suitable lens cleaning solution to remove all immersion oil.
  10. Condenser and Iris Diaphragm Adjustment: Adjust the condenser height and the iris diaphragm to optimize contrast and resolution for each objective. Generally, higher magnification requires more light and a wider diaphragm opening.

7. Itọju

  • Àwọn ohun èlò ìfọmọ́: Use only specialized lens paper and lens cleaning solution for objective lenses and eyepieces. Gently wipe in a circular motion. Never touch optical surfaces with bare fingers.

  • Idaabobo eruku: Always cover the microscope with the provided dust cover when not in use.
  • Ibi ipamọ: Store the microscope in a cool, dry, and dust-free environment. Ensure the lowest power objective is in place and the stage is lowered.
  • Rirọpo Boolubu: If the halogen bulb burns out, unplug the microscope and allow it to cool. Refer to the diagram in the bulb compartment for replacement instructions. Use only the specified 12V 20W halogen bulb.
