4-2 Microscope Body and Focusing Assembly
In reflected light observation, the stage plate can be placed either the
white or black side facing up.
Win transmitted light observation, use the transparent
glass stage plate (SP-C).
This operation is intended to facilitates the rotation of
the knobs while preventing the spontaneous drop of the
microscope body. It is recommended to set the knob
rotation tension to a slightly higher level than the point where
spontaneous drop occurs.
If the knobs are hard to move because of the weight of option
modules and/or camera mounted on the microscope body, it
is recommended to use the focusing assembly for heavy load
(SZX2-FOFH).
The rotation tension of the coarse focus adjustment knob
can be adjusted with the rotation tension adjustment
ring
a
. Do not rotate the knobs on the left and right
in opposite directions, for this will damage the internal
mechanism.
Rotate the rotation tension adjustment ring
a
by inserting the
Allen screwdriver
c
into the hole
b
on the ring periphery.
Rotating the ring clockwise increases the rotation tension of the coarse
focus adjustment knob, and rotating counterclockwise decreases it.
· If the microscope body falls down by its own weight or
the focus obtained by fine focusing is lost immediately, the
rotation tension adjustment may be too light. In this case,
rotate the ring clockwise to increase the rotation tension.
· If the rotation tension adjustment is too tight, delicate
focusing will be impossible and the knob may be damaged.
Particularly, to prevent damage, never rotate the fine focus
adjustment knob quickly while its rotation tension is
extremely tight.
Place the specimen on the approximate center of the stage plate. Hold
the specimen with the specimen holder as required.
Illuminate the specimen with an illuminator selected according to the
specimen under observation.
