    What to do if my Reichert Manual Lensometer ML1 Microscope has no power?

      Stephen SmithAug 4, 2025
      If your Reichert Microscope has no power, first, ensure the instrument is not in 'sleep' mode by pressing the On-Off Switch. If that doesn't work, replace the batteries, making sure to install them with the negative side toward the spring. If the problem persists, it may be an electronic issue, and you should have the instrument serviced.

      If your Reichert Microscope does not read “0” without a lens in place, the eyepiece may not be focused for you. Try focusing the eyepiece. If the issue continues, the instrument may need calibration, and you should have it serviced.

      If the high powers on your Reichert Microscope are off by the same amount in the same direction, the vertex distance setting may be incorrect, or pads may be installed on the Lens Holder. Remove any pads. If the problem persists, the instrument may need calibration, and you should have it serviced.
