Setting Up
1.
Once you have placed your sample on the base below the objective, center the sample as best as possible. A slide
is neither needed nor required for a stereo microscope, although they can be used if desired. If using a slide, use
the stage clips to hold it in place.
2.
Select which magnification setting you would like to achieve by using the 10x eyepieces for the 10x setting, or
using one of the other eyepieces included with an X, Y, or Z model.
3.
With both eyes open, look into the eyepieces. Adjust the interpupillary distance by holding the eyepiece tubes
and rotating the eyepiece tubes either towards or away from each other until only one circle of light is seen by both
eyes.
3.
Focus the microscope on the sample by using the focusing knob on the arm of the microscope.
4.
Center the object in the field of view once you have achieved focus.
Attaching a Camera
1.
Remove the eyepiece from the microscope. You may need to unscrew the locking screw on the microscope ocu-
lar tube to remove the eyepiece.
2.
Slide in the 23mm to 30.5mm adapter included with your CMOS camera.
3.
Insert the camera into the 23mm side of the adapter.
