SECTION 3: OPERATING THE MICROSCOPE

This microscope is designed to view translucent specimens mounted primarily

on 3" x 1" glass slides. A metal template with caliper is attached to the top of

the stage. A prepared slide can be placed on the stage by pushing the caliper

lever outward to open the caliper, then sliding the slide in place so the long edge

is flush against the back edge of the template. Gently releasing the caliper will

secure the slide in place.

Turn on the microscope's illumination by pressing the power switch to the "on"

position. As magnification increases, more light will be necessary to view the

specimen. Use the dial on the microscope's base to adjust the illuminator's

brightness as needed. Avoid using the microscope for long durations with

excessive brightness, as this can strain the eyes.

With the specimen mounted on the stage, and the illuminator turned on, use the stage's X-Y control knobs under the

right side of the stage to adjust the position of the specimen. The larger knob will move the specimen forward and

backward, while the smaller knob will move the specimen left and right. Sliding the specimen towards the front of

the microscope will result in the viewed image moving in the opposite direction. Use the knobs until the specimen

appears to be centered under the objective lens. This will be the starting point.
