(7-7) Center the field diaphragm image in
the viewfield of the eyepiece by
manipulating the centering screws.
Centering is easier to perform if the
size of the field diaphragm image is
adjusted so that it is slightly smaller
than the viewfield.

Objectives
Objectives are attached to the microscope before shipment.
When replacing an objective, remove the specimen from the stage and lower the stage. Remove
the objective holding it with both hands. Be careful not to drop the objective.
Screw a new objective into the revolving nosepiece. Set the objectives in such an order that the
objective magnification increases as the revolving nosepiece is turned clockwise (as viewed from
the top of the microscope).

Specimen Holder
The specimen holder is attached to the stage before shipment.
When removing the holder, loosen the two hexagonal socket head bolts furthermost from the
specimen using the hexagonal wrench provided.

Eyepiece and Eyepiece Pointer
The 10x eyepieces are attached to the eyepiece
tube before shipment. When removing an eyepiece,
loosen the eyepiece set screws using the hexagonal
wrench provided and then remove the eyepiece.
When attaching an eyepiece, push the eyepiece
down to its full limit and tighten up the set screw.
Be careful not to tighten too hard.
When changing to a 15x eyepiece (optional), be
sure to change both the right and left eyepieces
together. The right and left eyepieces should be of
the same magnification.
The eyepiece pointer (optional) serves as a
reference for pointing out the specimen. Attach the
pointer to one of the eyepieces. Rotate and remove
the viewfield ring from the eyepiece end. Attach
the eyepiece pointer to the eyepiece and then put
back the viewfield ring.
