Operating procedures for optical microscopes
1. Practice and strictly follow the usage regulations.
2. When using a microscope, be sure to hold the curved arm with one hand and the base with the other hand. The microscope should not be tilted to prevent the eyepiece from sliding out from the upper end of the tube. Handle the microscope with care.
3. Do not move the position of the microscope casually.
4. The optical part of the microscope can only be wiped with special lens wiping paper and solution together. It is not allowed to wipe with other objects indiscriminately, and it is also not allowed to touch the lens with fingers to prevent sweat from contaminating the lens.
5. Dry and clean the microscope to avoid contamination by dust, water, and chemical reagents.
6. When using the objective lens, do not move the animal lens lens, only rotate the converter. Nowadays, microscopes have electric conversion and are also very convenient to use, which is a development direction
7. Rotate the focusing handwheel freely. When using the micro focus knob, use light force, rotate slowly, and do not turn hard when unable to rotate.
8. It is strictly prohibited to dismantle the parts on the microscope at will, and it is strictly prohibited to dismantle the objective lens at will to avoid damaging the converter screw port or causing uneven focus during the conversion of the low and high magnification objective lens after the screw port is loose.
9. When adjusting the focus of a high-power objective, do not use a coarse focusing handwheel to adjust the focal length, to avoid excessive movement and damage to the objective and glass slide.
10. Minimize the light source to extend the lifespan of the bulb.

Extending the lifespan of microscopes
1. If conditions permit, it is recommended that your laboratory should have three protective conditions: shockproof (away from the earthquake source), moisture-proof (using air conditioning and dryers), and dustproof (laying the floor on the ground); Power supply: 220V ± 10%, 50HZ; Temperature: 0 ° C-40 ° C.
2. When focusing, be careful not to let the objective lens touch the sample to avoid scratching the objective lens.
3. Do not switch the objective lens when the center of the pad circular hole on the stage is far from the center position of the objective lens to avoid scratching the objective lens.
4. Brightness adjustment should not be too high or too low, as it may affect the lifespan of the light bulb and also damage vision.
5. All (function) switches should be light and in place.
6. When turning off, turn the brightness to the minimum.
7. Non professionals should not adjust the lighting system (filament position light) to avoid affecting the imaging quality.
8. When replacing halogen lamps, pay attention to high temperatures to avoid burns; Be careful not to directly touch the glass body of the halogen lamp with your hands.
9. When turned off and not in use, adjust the objective lens to a low state through the focusing mechanism.
10. When shutting down and not in use, do not immediately cover the dust cover. Wait until it cools down before covering, and pay attention to fire prevention. The above points are only some areas that should be paid special attention to. I hope everyone should be careful and careful during the use of the microscope. If you encounter any difficulties when using the microscope that you cannot solve on your own, you can immediately contact the microscope merchant by phone to find a solution.
