8. As eyesight differs dioptre compensation is built into your
microscope. Adjust the rotatable eyepieces to their centre setting
(fig. 2.13). Now look through the binocular sight. Close your right eye
and use only the left to look through the eyepiece. Adjust until the
specimen image is sharp. Now close the left eye and look through
the eyepiece with the right eye. If the image is unclear turn the
dioptre compensation (fig. 2, 13) until the image is in focus. The
instrument is now adjusted for both your eyes.
9. To change magnification turn the zoom adjustment (fig. 1.8). This
continuously adjusts magnification between 1x and 4x. Actual
magnification is calculated by multiplying the zoom by the eyepiece
value (10x or 20x).
10. To replace the lenses (fig. 1, 3) undo their fastening screws using a
small screwdriver. Do not unscrew them too far. After replacing the
lenses the screws can be carefully retightened.
11. To increase microscope magnification use the Barlow lens supplied
(fig. 5). Screw the Barlow lens carefully into the mounting provided
for it (fig 1, 14).
Replacing the microscope table plate
In addition to the transparent plate a plate with a white and a black side
is included. This plate is used to improve contrast.
Using the trinocular sight.
This is used for photography. If you use a Bresser MikrOkular it can
easily be inserted in the trinocular extension. A mirror reflex camera can
be added using the optional camera adapter and T2 ring.
Before you can use the trinocular sight the lever (fig. 1, 15) must be
pulled out.
Care and maintenance
Replacing the transmitted light unit bulb
1. Use the ON/OFF switch (fig. 1, 5) to turn the microscope off and then
remove the power plug.
2. Undo the clamping screw to open the housing and then remove the
glass plate and blue filter. The bulb (fig. 4) and its mounting are now
visible.
3. Carefully remove the old bulb from its socket.
4. Insert the new one carefully. Make sure the bulb is correctly
inserted.
5. Clean it with a little alcohol to remove any fingerprints.
6. Then close the housing. The microscope is then again ready for
use.
Changing the bulb in the direct light unit
1. Use the ON/OFF switch (fig. 1, 5) to switch the microscope off and
unplug it.
2. To make the job easier remove the entire lens unit. This is done by
undoing the clamping screw (fig. 1, 17). Then put the entire unit
carefully aside.
3. Then carefully unscrew the filter mounting with filter. Make sure the
filter doesn‘t fall out (fig. 4).
4. Carefully remove the old bulb from its socket.
5. Insert the new one carefully. Make sure the bulb is correctly
inserted.
6. Screw the filter back on and fasten the entire until back in place. The
microscope is then again ready for use.
Changing the fuse
Two fuses are inbuilt to protect the microscope. Should
one fail it can be changed as follows.
1. Turn the microscope off using the ON/OFF switch (fig. 1, 5) and then
remove the plug.
2. Check which fuse needs replacing. To do so undo the fuse caps on
the microscope back. This is best done using a coin.
3. Then check them both. The wire in either or both is often visibly
broken. If so, then that fuse must be replaced. Alternatively, switch
the fuses around to find out which is not functioning.
4. Your microscope is ready for use again once any defective fuse has
been replaced.
Keeping the lens clean
Cover the microscope when not in use using the hood supplied to keep
it clean.
Your microscope is a precision instrument so please do not remove
any part/s of it. Doing so may prevent it working properly.
