Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new AmScope microscope!

This manual is designed for the SM-5 series microscopes (SM-5B, SM-5T, and all their variants).

The two base models of this series differ in that the -B models are binocular (two eyepiece ocular

tubes), while the -T models are trinocular (two eyepiece ocular tubes with a third port on top for

microscope camera).

Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the features and functions of your new

microscope.

If you’d like more information on microscopes, parts, or accessories, please visit our website at:

www.amscope.com

We highly recommend you study this manual thoroughly before operating the microscope and

that

you keep it on hand for future reference.

If you have additional questions or need assistance, please send us an email at:

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).

Operation

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
