Q

How to use a light microscope

A
  1. Carry the microscope by the arm with one hand and support it with your other hand under the base
  2. Ensure that the stage is at the lowest point (use the coarse adjustment knob to lower it if need be)
  3. Ensure that the scanning powered objective is in use
  4. Adjust the diaphragm so that the maximum amount of light is passing through it
  5. Place the slide on the stage. Fasten it with the stage clips
  6. Slowly raise the stage toward the objective, until the specimen is located
  7. You may need to use the low powered and high powered objective lenses to locate the specimen. If you do ensure that the stage is low enough so that the slide will not be damaged
  8. Once the specimen is located, use the fine adjustment knob to make the image clear and in focus
