OPERATION
3-1 Base
1 Using the Stage Plate
When reflected light illumination is used, the stage plate can be placed
either the white or black surface facing up depending on which side
makes the specimen easier to view.
# To maintain the ESD performance, use the black surface of the SZ2-
SPBW stage plate.
# When transmitted light illumination is used, use the optional SP-C
transparent glass stage plate.
}This operation is intended to facilitate the rotation of the knobs while
preventing spontaneous drop of the microscope body. It is recommended
to set the knob tension to a slightly higher level than the point where
spontaneous drop occurs.
· Hold the left and right focus adjustment knobs @ with both hands, fix the
left knob and rotate the right knob. The rotation tension of the knobs
increases or decreases according to the direction in which the right knob
is rotated.
1 Adjusting the Interpupillary Distance (Fig. 3)
While holding the left and right eyepiece sleeves @ with both hands,
look through the eyepieces and adjust for binocular vision until the left
and right fields of view coincide completely.
}The adjustment operation is variable whether the eyepieces use an eye-
piece micrometer disks or not.
Eyepieces without eyepiece micrometer disk
1. Turn the diopter adjustment rings ² of the left and right eyepieces to
positions “0”.
2. Place an easy-to-observe specimen on the stage plate.
3. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate
the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.
4. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the highest magnification and ro-
tate the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.
5. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate
the diopter adjustment rings ² of the left and right eyepieces, instead of
the focus adjustment knob, to bring the specimen into focus.
