1. Choosing a place for the microscope
Before starting, choose a sufficient location for microscoping. Please take care that your
microscope stands on an even and solid ground. A power supply socket is required to charge the
batteries.
Position your device so that it can be disconnected from the power supply at any time. The wall
socket should always be located near the device and be easily accessible, since the plug on the
power cord serves as a disconnecting device for the power supply.
2. Illumination
With the Researcher ICD, you have three illumination options: incident light, transmission light and
both. First, connect the power supply to a power supply socket and then into the power supply
connection of the microscope (10). Now, engage the main switch (11). With the source switch
(14), you can adjust the illumination type: Pos. I for incident light, pos. II for transmission light, pos.
III for both. At position 0, both lamps are off. With the dimmer (12), one can adjust the brightness.
3. Observation
First, remove the dust protective cover (6) from the objective holder (5). Place the desired object
in the middle of the stage (8) and secure it with the clamps (9) if necessary. The objective's
magnification (2x or 4x) can be adjusted by turning the objective holder (5). It is recommended to
start observations always with the lowest magnification. Now look through the eyepieces (1) at the
binocular head (3). Adjust the sharpness with the focuser (4).
