3-9 Focusing upper limit (Fig.10)
⚫Actually, if you want to restrict locking of stage height (The upper limit of focus)
as appropriate, just turn the locking hand-wheel in the direction of the arrow (as
shown in Fig.10) at the corresponding upper limit position.
3-10 Electric condenser adjustment (Fig.11, 12)
⚫The center of the condenser should be coaxial with the optical axis of the
objective lens, the product has been adjusted before delivery, there is no need
to adjust the center again.
⚫The top position of the condenser, the product has been adjusted before
delivery, users don't need to adjust it by themselves.
⚫Turn the focusing hand-wheel of the condenser①, the condenser moves up and
down, make the aperture image of the field clear at each magnification.
Focus the lens in the middle position:
1. Turn the focusing hand wheel of the condenser①, Raise the condenser to the
highest position.
2. Focus the sample with 10x objective lens.
3. Rotate aperture ring②, narrow the field stop image to make it visible in the field
of view.
4. Turn the focusing hand wheel of the condenser①, focus the image of the field
aperture.
5. Move the field diaphragm to the center of the field with the universal adjusting
wrench turning the center of the field with the center screws ③ to the center
of the condenser.
6. Gradually open the field aperture, if the image of the field diaphragm is in the
center and in the field of view, which means the condenser has been correctly
aligned.
7. In practical application, slightly increase the aperture of the field of view to make
its image just cut out of the field of view.
8. Aperture diaphragm④ adjustment. Aperture diaphragm is designed for the
adjustment of numerical aperture, not for brightness control. Usually, When the
aperture diaphragm is opened to 70 to 80% of the exit pupil of the objective lens,
good image with enough contrast can be obtained, adjust the aperture
diaphragm with the scale mark on the condenser lens in accordance to objective
lens magnification.
9. Adjustment of aperture size in field of view.
During operation, rotate the aperture of the field diaphragm②, narrow the field
diaphragm and observe the field of view, if the aperture looks blurry, you can
turn the focusing hand wheel of condenser, lift condenser holder to make the
image clear, then turn the field diaphragm, make it just adjust to fill the eyepiece
field of view to reduce the noise of light and improve image quality.
