1.
First, take the styrofoam container out of the cardboard carton and lay it on its side, paying attention to which

3.
Remove the microscope body from the box and remove the plastic protective covering. The body of the micro-
scope is composed of the base, the stage, the arm, and the nosepiece.
4.
Loosen the metal knob located directly above the nosepiece (the head-lock screw) completely. Place the light
box and channel (flat, circular side down) into the circular opening on top of the base of the microscope. Tighten
the head-lock screw to secure the head in place.
5.
Attach the head of the microscope in the same fashion as the light box and channel. For the ME520T model,
screw the photo port onto the top of the microscope head (trinocular C-mount port).
6.
Remove the eyetube caps and drop the desired eyepieces into the eyepiece ocular tubes. Be sure to avoid
touching the lens to ensure no artifacts appear in your image.
7.
Screw the objectives into the microscope nosepiece from the lowest magnification to the highest, again avoid-
ing touching the lenses.
8.
Plug in the microscope and turn it on. If no light emerges from the light source, adjust the dimmer knob on
the side of the base.
