- Eyepiece (Ocular): Where you look to view the specimen. The D120A-MS includes WF10x and WF16x eyepieces.
- Monokular Viewing glava: The upper part of the microscope containing the eyepiece tube. This model features a dual-view head with a fixed 45-degree inclined tube and a vertical port.
- Revolving Nosepiece: Holds the objective lenses and allows for easy switching between magnifications.
- Objektivi: The primary magnification components (4x, 10x, 40xS, 100xS oil).
- Mehanski Stage: A platform where the specimen slide is placed, with controls for precise X-Y movement.
- Stage posnetki: Secure the specimen slide on the mechanical stage.
- Coarse Focus Knob: Large knob for rapid focusing adjustments.
- Fine Focus Knob: Small knob for precise focusing adjustments.
- Illuminator (Light Source): Located beneath the stage, provides light for viewing. This model uses variable-intensity tungsten illumination.
- Abbe kondenzator: Located below the stage, focuses light onto the specimen. Features a 1.25 NA and an iris diaphragm.
- Diafragma šarenice: Controls the amount of light passing through the specimen.
- Osnova: The stable bottom support of the microscope.
5. Sestavljanje in nastavitev
Follow these steps to set up your microscope for initial use:
- Razpakiranje: Carefully remove the microscope and all accessories from the packaging. Retain the original packaging for future transport or storage.
- Umestitev: Place the microscope on a sturdy, level surface, away from vibrations and direct sunlight.
- Eyepiece Installation: Insert the desired eyepiece (WF10x or WF16x) into the inclined eyepiece tube of the monocular head. Gently twist to secure it.
- Objective Installation: The objective lenses are typically pre-installed. If not, carefully screw each objective into the revolving nosepiece in increasing order of magnification (4x, 10x, 40xS, 100xS). Ensure they are finger-tight.
- Napajalni priključek: Connect the power cord to the microscope's power input and then to a standard 110V electrical outlet.
- Pokrov proti prahu: When not in use, cover the microscope with the provided dust cover to protect it from dust and debris.

6. Osnovno delovanje
This section outlines the fundamental steps for observing specimens with your microscope.
- Vklop: Flip the power switch located on the base of the microscope. The illuminator should light up.
- Prilagodi osvetlitev: Use the variable intensity control knob to set the desired brightness. Adjust the iris diaphragm on the Abbe condenser to optimize contrast and resolution for your specimen.
- Place Specimen: Rotate the revolving nosepiece to select the lowest power objective (4x). Lower the mechanical stage using the coarse focus knob. Place a prepared specimen slide onto the mechanical stage in ga pritrdite s stage posnetki.
- Position Specimen: Uporabite XY stage control knobs to move the slide until the area of interest is centered under the objective lens.
- Fokusiranje:
- While looking through the eyepiece, slowly raise the stage z uporabo coarse focus knob until the specimen comes into rough focus.
- Uporabite fine focus knob to achieve a sharp, clear image.
- Spremeni povečavo: Once focused at low power, rotate the revolving nosepiece to switch to a higher power objective (e.g., 10x, 40xS). Due to the parfocal design, only minor adjustments with the fine focus knob should be needed to bring the image back into sharp focus.
- Using the 100xS Oil Immersion Objective:
- After focusing with the 40xS objective, rotate the nosepiece halfway between the 40xS and 100xS objectives.
- Place a small drop of immersion oil directly onto the center of the specimen slide where the light passes through.
- Carefully rotate the 100xS objective into the oil drop until it clicks into place. The objective should be immersed in the oil.
- Uporabljajte samo fine focus knob to bring the image into sharp focus. Do not use the coarse focus knob with the 100xS objective.
- After use, clean the 100xS objective and the slide immediately with lens paper moistened with lens cleaning solution to remove all immersion oil.
- DvojnoView Funkcionalnost: The vertical port on the monocular head can accept a second eyepiece for simultaneous viewing by another person or a camera mount for digital image capture (eyepiece and camera sold separately). Dioptric adjustment on the upright tube accommodates individual eye-strength differences.
