2.0 INTRODUCTION
This microscope is a scientific precision instrument designed to last for many years with a minimum
of maintenance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily classroom
and laboratory use.
Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and
that it must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users.
Optika declines any responsibility deriving from instrument use that does not comply with this man-
ual.
3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
3.1
The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the
edge of the container and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the
optical items (objectives and eyepieces) fall out and get damaged. Lift the microscope from
the container and put it on a stable desk.
3.2
The objectives are located in individual protective vials. Remove the objectives from the vials
and insert them into the microscope nosepiece in the order from the lowest magnification to
the highest, in a clockwise direction from the rear.
4.0 USING THE MICROSCOPE
4.1
Turn the observation head to a comfortable position for observation.
4.2
Ensure that the specimen is centred over the stage opening. Lock the specimen slide on the
mechanical stage using the two slide clamps.
4.3
The microscope comes with an electrical illuminator. Insert the plug of the cable into the
power socket on the back of the microscope and turn on the switch on the right side of the
main body.
4.4
Rotate the coarse focusing knob to bring the slide into focus with the 4X objective. Adjust the
fine focusing knob to get the image sharp and clear.
4.5
Adjust the aperture of the iris diaphragm to set the numerical aperture of the illuminator, thus
controlling image contrast and resolution.
4.6
Turn the nosepiece to choose the objective you need.
4.7
To set the maximal height of the stage, use the stage adjustment screw.
