Use of the microscope
9.1
Light intensity adjustment
1. Rotate the light adjustment ring ① on the right side of the
microscope body. (Fig. 7)

Clockwise rotation increases the tension while counter-

Adjust the focusing tension to appropriate position, to pre-
vent the microscope body dropping during observation, and
also make focusing stable.

Parfocality adjustment
1. Rotate the zoom adjustment ring
fication. (Fig. 9)

If necessary adjust the height of the microscope head along
the pillar: unlock the fixing knob ⑤, move the microscope to
the desired height and lock the fixing knob ⑤ after setting the
height of the microscope. (Fig. 10)

In order to prevent accidental lowering of the system
due to imperfect locking of the fixing knob, it is advis-
