Focusing and Changing Power
To achieve the best focus for your micr
adjust the left diopter ring (1) of the lef
th e zoom power knob (14) at the 0.7x position on the dial which is the lowest power (10x). It is usually best to begin
viewing a specimen at low power, then zoom to high powers. The maximum power is 67x (dial at 4.5x).
1. Turn the focus knob (6) until the specimen comes into focus. If there is not enough travel in the focuser mechanism
to reach focus, it may be necessary to loosen the pillar stand locking knob (5) and raise or lower the entire binocular
head assembly (15) until the image becomes sharp.
2. While looking through the eyepieces, adjust the interpupillary distance by rotating both eyepieces and the eyepiece
holding up and down until the whole field of view can be observed through both eyes at the same time. The reason
this is necessary is that people have varying distance
3. Close your left eye and focus with the right eyepiece until the image is sharp. Then, close your right eye and turn the
left eyepiece diopter ring (1) until the image is in sharp focus through the left eyepiece. Now the interpupillary
distance is set and you can focus only with the focus knob (6).
4. If higher power is desired, rotate the zoom power knob (14) to the desired power. As you increase power, you will
have to refocus the object.
5. You can adjust the tension of the focus knobs (6) to suit your n
focus knob tight and rotate the right focus knob clockwise to make the tension stiffer. To make the tension looser,
you would rotate the right f
