II. Parts of the microscope

III. Assembly and set up

Carefully remove the microscope from the box and set it on a sturdy, flat surface. If the

microscope was shipped with eyepiece unassembled, remove the plastic cover from the

eyepiece holder on the microscope's head, then place an eyepiece into the holder.

Insert the included batteries into the battery compartment. Turn the microscope on by

pressing the power button.

IV. Using the microscope

Turn the microscope on and choose the lower lamp setting (located on the power on

button).

Secure a slide via the slide clips on the stage.

Rotate the monocular head to either the forward- or backward-facing position,

depending on what is most comfortable for viewing.

Always start with the lowest magnification objective lens centered over the stage, in this

case the 4x objective. Look through the eyepiece and bring the image into focus by

slowly turning the larger coarse adjustment focus knob to bring the stage closer to the

objective.

*Note that this microscope does not have a fine focusing knob for more detailed

viewing.

Manually move the slide across the stage to look at different parts of the specimen

slide.

Increase magnification by rotating the nosepiece clockwise to a higher magnification

objective, taking care not to strike the slide with the objective. If you cannot move the

objective into place without making contact with the slide, use the coarse focus knob to

move the stage down and away to make room before changing magnification.

*To use the microscope in incident mode, switch the illumination to the upper light built

into the body. Place a solid specimen (such as hair, pollen, etc.) onto the stage with the

objective lenses on the lowest magnification setting. Repeat the steps for focusing to

see magnified details.

V. Caring for your microscope

As with any quality instrument, your microscope should be stored in a cool, dry place.

Use the dust cover to protect the microscope when not in use. If necessary, clean the

lenses with a soft brush or compressed air to gently remove dust. Avoid touching the

optical surfaces directly and never disassemble the optical components of the

microscope. When not using an eyepiece, use the plastic cover to protect the eyepiece

holder and ocular lens.

VI. Troubleshooting

If you have a problem, you may be able to correct it yourself. Here are some common

issues and easy solutions you can try before calling customer support for service.

*Caution: Never disassemble the electrical, mechanical, or optical components. This

servicing should only be done by a Swift technician.
