4. Selecting Magnification
Rotate the revolving nosepiece to select an objective lens. Start with the lowest magnification (e.g., 120X) to locate your specimen, then switch to higher magnifications as needed. The total magnification is the eyepiece magnification multiplied by the objective lens magnification.
- Available Magnifications: 120X, 240X, 300X, 480X, 600X, 1200X.
5. Enfocament
- Mira a través de l'ocular.
- Slowly turn the coarse focus knob to bring the specimen into approximate focus.
- Use the fine focus knob for precise focusing and to achieve a clear image.
