Turn on the lamp.
Turn on the power to the microscope (press the
power switch to the “
○
” position) to turn on the
lamp. Adjust the brightness of the viewfield with
the brightness adjuster. (Turn clockwise to increase
brightness. Turn counterclockwise to decrease
brightness.)
When using the TS100-F/TS100LED-F MV, set the
optical path changeover knob to BINO before
adjusting the brightness of the viewfield.
2
Adjust the interpupillary distance.
Looking through the eyepieces, adjust the distance
between the binocular tube so that the right and
left viewfields overlap to form a single image. (This
operation sets the distance between the eyepieces
to match that between the operator's eyes.)
3
Set the diopter adjustment ring to
the reference position.
Turn the diopter adjustment ring on the right
eyepiece to align the 0 line with the reference line.
Also align the 0 line of the left diopter adjustment
ring with the reference line.
4
Fully open the aperture
diaphragm.
Move the aperture diaphragm lever on the
condenser to the full right to fully open the
aperture.
5
Set the specimen in place.
Place a specimen on the stage. Adjust its position
so that the center of the container (that has the
even thickness) comes under the optical path.
When using a φ 35-mm Petri dish, always attach
the supplied round-holed ring to the stage to
prevent the dish from falling off.
(See P.24 when using other containers.)
