3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY

3.1 The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the ge 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. Using both hands (one around the arm
and one around the base), lift the microscope from the container and put it on a stable desk.
3.2 Place the observation head onto the top of the arm and tighten the lock-screw. Insert the
eyepiece/s into the eye tube/s. Remove the plastic protection film from the microscope stage.
3.3 The objectives are located in individual protective vials. Remove the objectives from the
vials and insert them into the microscope nosepiece in the order from the lowest magnifica-
tion to the highest, in a clockwise direction from the rear.
