  If the fields of view for both eyes do not coincide when using your Olympus Microscope, it could be due to an incorrect interpupillary distance or uncompensated diopter differences. Adjust the interpupillary distance correctly and adjust the diopter correctly.

  If the objective interferes with the stage center plate or the mechanical stage CKX3-MVR on your Olympus Microscope, it is likely that the stage center plate is not placed at the correct position or is tilted. Attach the stage center plate at the correct position.

  If the mechanical stage CKX3-MVR on your Olympus Microscope does not work smoothly, it could be due to a loosened fixing knob. Make sure to tighten the fixing knob firmly. Alternatively, the specimen might be too heavy. Try placing a lighter specimen on the stage to confirm the movement of the mechanical stage CKX3-MVR.
