This microscope is a scientific precision instrument designed to last for many
years with a minimum of maintenance. It is built to high optical and
mechanical standards and to withstand daily classroom and laboratory use.
JC LAB reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety
and maintenance, and that it must therefore be made accessible to the
instrument users. JC LAB declines any responsibility deriving from instrument
use that does not comply with this manual.

4.1 The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove
the tape from the edge of the container and lift the top half of the container.
Take some care to avoid that the optical items (objectives and eyepieces) fall
out and get damaged. Lift the microscope from the container and put it on a
stable desk.
4.2 The objectives are assembled on the microscope. If removed the
objectives from the microscope then insert them into the microscope
nosepiece in the order from the lowest magnification to the highest, in a
clockwise direction from the rear.
Do not touch with bare hands optical surfaces such as lenses, filters or
glasses. Traces of grease or other residuals may deteriorate the final
image quality and corrode the optics surface in a short time.
