Before

Use

Safety Precautions

As the microscope is a precision instrument, always handle it with care, avoiding impact

or abrupt movement during transportation. Do not shake the package.

Do not place the microscope in direct sunlight or in high heat. Keep it indoors in a dry

and clean place with temperatures between 32-100 degrees F (0-40 degrees C), and in

maximum relative humidity of 85%.

Avoid touching the lenses on the objectives and the eyepieces so that oil and dirt from

your fingerprints do not obstruct your view.

Before turning the power on, make sure that the power supply voltage is consistent with

the voltage of your microscope (for units with built in illumination).

Getting

Started

Assembly

First, take the styrofoam container out of the cardboard carton and lay it on its side, paying attention to which

side is labeled up. Remove the tape and open the container carefully so as to avoid dropping and damaging the

optical items. Check carefully to ensure that all parts and accessories are intact.

Check the packing list to ensure that you’re received all items.

Stereo Microscope Body & Stand

5x Widefield Eyepieces (X models only)

10x Widefield Eyepieces (Typically these come on the microscope)

15x Widefield Eyepieces (Y models only)

20x Widefield Eyepieces (Z models only)

Dust Cover

LED Light Source

Tension Adjustment Wrench

Remove the microscope body from the box and remove the plastic protective covering. The body of the micro-

scope is composed of the head of the microscope and the base.

Insert the vertical pillar into the base if not already installed. Wrap the cable around the top to avoid slack in

the cable if desired.

Insert the boom into the joint and secure. Attach light to the base via inserting it in the rear of the base of the

microscope if not already attached.

Remove the eyetube caps and drop the desired eyepieces into the eyepiece ocular tubes. Be sure to avoid

touching the lens to ensure no artifacts appear in your image.

Remove the cap from the objective lens.

Plug in the microscope and turn it on.

Operation

Setting Up

Once you have placed your sample on the base below the objective, center the sample as best as possible. A slide

is neither needed nor required for a stereo microscope, although they can be used if desired. If using a slide, use

the stage clips to hold it in place.

Select which magnification setting you would like to achieve by using the 10x eyepieces for the 10x setting, or

using one of the other eyepieces included with an X, Y, or Z model.

With both eyes open, look into the eyepieces. Adjust the interpupillary distance by holding the eyepiece tubes

and rotating the eyepiece tubes either towards or away from each other until only one circle of light is seen by both

eyes.

Focus the microscope on the sample by using the focusing knob on the arm of the microscope.

Center the object in the field of view once you have achieved focus.

Attaching a Camera

Remove the eyepiece from the microscope. You may need to unscrew the locking screw on the microscope ocu-

lar tube to remove the eyepiece.

Slide in the 23mm to 30.5mm adapter included with your CMOS camera.

Insert the camera into the 23mm side of the adapter.

Operation

Maintenance/Precautions

All glass surfaces must be kept clean. Fine dust on the optical surface should be blown off using a hand blower or

gently wiped off with a soft lens paper tissue/nonabrasive lint free cloth.

Carefully wipe off oil or fingerprints on the lens surfaces using tissue moistened with a small amount of lens

cleaner (we recommend Sparkle brand optical cleaner).

Do not use Sparkle to clean other elements of the microscope. Use a neutral detergent on any plastic or painted

surfaces.

Do not assemble or disassemble the microscope’s electrical components yourself without advisement from one of

our technicians. Doing so will void your warranty unless by advisement of one of our technicians to do so.

After use, cover the microscope with the provided dust cover.

Keep your AmScope microscope in a dry, clean location in order to prevent rust or other damages.
