Place a permanent slide culture directly under the microscope lens on the plate (7).
The specimen to be examined must be directly over the lighting.
Look through the eyepiece (1 and 2) and carefully turn the focus wheel (8) until you
can see a sharp picture.
Now you can progress to a higher magnification. Slowly pull the Barlow lens (No. 2, 3)
out of the monocular barrel (No. 2, 4). When the Barlow lens is nearly entirely pulled
out, the magnification is raised to 2X.
For even higher magnification, you can put the 16X eyepiece (2) into the objective
revolver (6) and rotate the objective revolver to a higher magnification (10X or 40X).

TIP:
Depending on the preparation, higher magnifications do not
always lead to better pictures.
When changing the magnification of your microscope by changing or adjusting the
eyepiece, objective lens or Barlow lens, you must readjust the focus wheel (8) to
sharpen the image.
NOTE:
Please be very careful when doing this. If you move the mechanical
plate upward too fast, the objective lens and the slide can touch and
become damaged.

How do I install the MicrOcular?

The MicrOcular only works without the included Barlow lens! The magnification setting
is changed when the MicrOcular is used, and it must be readjusted with the focus knob.
