What to do if the Swift Microscope light is too dim?
If the light on your Swift Microscope is too dim, it might be because the iris aperture is closed too far, the bulb setting is too low, the condenser lens is dirty, or the voltage is too low. Try opening the iris aperture wider, increasing intensity on the control wheel, wiping the condenser lens off with a soft cloth, or using the supplied power adapter.
What to do if Swift Microscope lamp does not turn on?
If the lamp on your Swift Microscope doesn't turn on, it could be due to no power source or a burned-out bulb. Check that the adapter is fully connected or that batteries are installed, or replace the bulb.
Why is the Swift Microscope image quality poor?
Poor image quality in your Swift Microscope can stem from several reasons. It could be due to the absence of a cover slip on the specimen, a slide that's either too thick or too thin, or the slide being placed upside down. Other potential causes include oil on the objective lens or an improperly adjusted iris aperture. To resolve this, place a glass cover slip over the specimen, use a lab-quality slide, flip the slide over so that the cover slip is facing up, wipe the lens off with soft cloth and glass cleaner, or adjust the iris aperture.
How to fix uneven visual field in Swift Microscope?
An uneven visual field or a dark image at the edges on your Swift Microscope can occur if the nosepiece isn't locked, the slide isn't centered, the objective or eyepiece lens are dirty, or the iris aperture is closed too far. You can fix this by turning the nosepiece until you hear a click to center the objective lens, centering the slide over the bulb with the X-Y translational control knobs, cleaning with compressed air or soft brush, or opening the iris aperture wider.
