• WF10X (20mm) Eyepiece: Provides 10x magnification.
• Monocular Diopter Adjustment Knob: For adjusting focus for individual eyes.
• Eyepiece Tube: Holds the eyepieces.
• Zoom: Contains the objective lenses (2X and 4X).
• Objectif : Provides primary magnification.
• Lower Light Source: Transmitted LED illumination for transparent specimens.
• Base: Stable foundation of the microscope.
• Dimming Handwheel: Adjusts the brightness of the illumination.
• Stage (Frosted): Platform for placing specimens, includes staget des clips.
• Stage Clips : Secure specimens on the stage.
• Upper Light Source: Incident LED illumination for opaque specimens.
• Molette de mise au point : Adjusts the distance between the objective and the specimen for clear focus.
• Stand Column: Supports the microscope head and focusing mechanism.

Installation

1. Déballage: Retirez soigneusement tous les composants de l'emballage. Conservez l'emballage pour un stockage ou un transport ultérieur.
2. Installation de l'oculaire : Insert the wide-field 10X eyepieces into the eyepiece tubes. Ensure they are seated firmly.
3. Connexion électrique : Branchez l'adaptateur secteur à l'entrée d'alimentation du microscope, puis à une prise électrique appropriée.
4. Réglage de la distance interpupillaire : While looking through the eyepieces, adjust the distance between the two eyepiece tubes (55mm-75mm range) until you see a single, clear circular field of view.

5. Réglage dioptrique : If one eye requires a different focus, use the monocular diopter adjustment knob on one eyepiece to fine-tune the focus for that eye after focusing with the main knob for the other eye.

Mode d'emploi

1. Marche/Arrêt : Use the main power switch located on the base of the microscope to turn the unit on or off.
2. Dépôt d'un spécimen : Place your specimen on the frosted stage plate. Use the stage clips to secure it if necessary. For opaque specimens, the reversible black/white stage plate can be used to enhance contrast.

3. Réglage de l'éclairage :
   • Upper (Incident) Illumination: For opaque objects, use the dimmable incident LED light shining down onto the specimen. Adjust brightness using the dimming handwheel.
   • Lower (Transmitted) Illumination: For transparent or translucent objects, use the dimmable transmitted LED light shining up through the frosted stage plate. Adjust brightness using the dimming handwheel.
4. Sélection du grossissement : The microscope features interchangeable 2X and 4X objective lenses. Rotate the objective lens housing to select the desired magnification. With the 10X eyepieces, this provides 20X or 40X magnification. With optional 20X eyepieces, 40X or 80X magnification is possible.
5. Mise au point : Use the focusing knob to bring the specimen into sharp focus. Start with the lowest magnification for easier initial focusing.
6. Rotation de la tête : The binocular head can be rotated 360 degrees, allowing for comfortable viewing from different angles or for multiple users to observe without moving the entire microscope.
7. Digital Photography (Optional): An eyepiece camera (not included) can be inserted into one of the eyepiece tubes to capture digital images or video of your observations.

Entretien

• Nettoyage des lentilles : Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution to clean optical surfaces. Avoid touching lenses with bare fingers.
• Nettoyage du corps : Essuyez le corps du microscope avec un chiffon doux et sec.amp tissu. N'utilisez pas de produits chimiques agressifs ou de nettoyants abrasifs.
• Stockage: Lorsqu'il n'est pas utilisé, recouvrez le microscope d'une housse anti-poussière pour le protéger de la poussière et des débris. Rangez-le dans un endroit sec et frais.
