Trouble
e) Resolution problems
· Images are not sharp.
· Contrast is wrong.
· Image details lack definition.
f ) The image is partially out of
focus.
2. Electric System
a) The bulb flickers and the light
intensity is unstable.
3. Focusing
a) The coarse adjustment knob
is too diffcult to turn.
b) The image goes out of focus
during observation.
4. Observation Tube
a) The fields of view of the left
and right eyepieces do not
match.
Cause
The light annulus and phase annulus are
not centered.
The objective is not compatible with
phase contrast observation.
When the edge of the culture vessel is
viewed, the phase annulus and light an-
nulus deviate from one another.
The objective is not correctly positioned
in the light path.
The specimen is not correctly placed on
the stage.
The optical performance of the culture
vessel is poor (e.g., surface regularity).
The line voltage fluctuates.
The bulb is almost burned out.
The power cord is not connected securely.
The coarse tension adjustment ring has
been tightened too much.
The coarse tension adjustment ring has
been loosened too much.
The interpupillary distance is not correctly
adjusted.
The diopter is not corrected.
You are not accustomed to binocular vision.
Remedy
When using the CK40-SL or CK40-RPSL
center them correctly.
Use one compatible with phase contrast
observation.
Move the vessel until phase contrast ef-
fect is achieved. Also remove the slider
and set the aperture iris diaphragm lever
to "
".
Turn the nosepiece slightly until it clicks
into position.
Put it on the stage correctly.
Use one with good surface regularity.
Use a voltage stabilizer.
Replace it with a new one.
Connect it securely.
Loosen it appropriately.
Tighten it appropriately.
Adjust it correctly.
Correct the diopter according to your eye-
sight.
Do not try to gaze at the specimen right
after looking into the eyepieces. Instead,
look at the entire field of view. Or take your
eyes away from the eyepieces briefly and
look at something else, then look into the
eyepieces again.
