How To Use Microscope
How to observe
Step1
Place the microscope on a smooth, level table.
Remove the cover from the eyepiece. Step2
Place the microscope in a well-lit position, such as by a window or a desk
lamp, and turn on the led light. Step 3
Adjust the focus handwheel to the highest position. Step 4
Rotate the objective turret to select the lowest magnification (100X)
objective. Note:
The turret has 3 lenses or objectives: 100X, 400X, and 1200X. The shorter the
objective, the lower the power or magnification. The longest objective is the
highest power.
Step 5
Put one of the prepared slides under the stage clips and position the prepared
specimen over the hole in the stage. And fix the section with the stage clips.
Step6
Rotate the focus knob to lower the body tube and descend slowly until the
specimen is very close. Be careful as you turn the focus knob so that the
objective lens does not make contact with a slide or the stage. This may cause
damage to the slide and also to the objective lens.
Step7
Adjust the microscope arm to a comfortable angle (like tilt 45°) Step8
Observe with one eye open to look through the eyepiece. If you cannot see any
image, you need to fine-tune the position of the slide until you can see the
specimen. If you see a blurred image, you can slowly adjust the focus knob
until the focus is successful and a clear field of view appears. NOTE:
The view presented in the eyepiece is upside down and reversed from left to
right of the object. In other words, if you wish to examine more of the left
side, move the slide to the right. Or if you wish to examine more of the top
of the image, move the slide down— and vice versa.
Step9
If you wish to increase magnification, rotate the objective turret to a higher
power and refocus. Each time you increase in magpnification, the amount of
light decreases, and the section of the image you are able to view also
decreases. Locate the color filter located at the front of the stage. Rotate
the filter to change filter colors. Observe how the color filter affects your
view of the prepared slide.
Make Wet Mount Slides
The most common way to prepare a specimen is with a “wet mount’, and here’s how you do it:
- Place a specimen on the slide. Using a pipette, place a drop of water on the specimen .
- Then place one edge of the cover slip over the specimen and carefully lower the cover slip into place using a toothpick or equivalent. This method will helps prevent air bubbles from being trapped under the cover slip.
- Your objective is to have sufficient water to fill space between cover slip and slide. If there is too much water, the cover slip will slide around. Take a piece of paper towel and hold it close to one edge of the cover slip. This will draw out some water. If too dry, add a drop of water beside the cover slip. Practice this until you get used to it.
Recommend Speciments to look at with wet mount slides
- Plant material, like leaves, onion skin, flower petals
- Mold spores from bread, cheese or fruit
Make Wet Mount Slides
- Select a clean slide. Make sure it’s free of dirt and smudges
- Inspect the specimen to determine if it needs to be sliced. (Try to use a translucent to transparent specimen for light to pass through it)
- Place the sample specimen on the slide using tweezers or toothpick – just enough to fit under a coverslip
- Carefully place a coverslip over your specimen to flatten it out. There is no need to worry about air bubbles, so you can just drop the coverslip onto the specimen.
Recommend Speciments to Jook at with dry mount slides
- Hair, fur or feathers
- Small insects or insect body parts
- Butterfly or moth wings
Tip
The highest magnification is not always the best for every specimen! It’s
recommended that you begin viewing at the lowest magnification or power and
focus the object. Once the image is focused, increase magnification by turning
the objective turret and refocus.
How to make onion slides?
All you need is the proper equipment and a little patience, you’ll be making
slides in no time. Tissue from an onion is a good start for viewing plant
cells. Let’s do it!
Onion Slide
Prepared Materials: onion, blank slides, cover slip, scalpel, tweezers,
stirring rod, water, dropper
- Place a drop of water in the middle of the slide with a dropper. This is to hold the onion skin and keep it from drying out.
- With adult supervision, use a scalpel to cuta small square on the inside (the rough side) onion and peel off the membrane, place it in the middle of the slide, and spread it with forceps.
- Using tweezers, place the onion skin membrane flat onto the drop of water on the slide.
- Place one edge of the coverslip over the onion. Carefully lower it into place using a toothpick or tweezers. This helps prevent air bubbles from getting trapped under the cover slip.
- Observe the slide under your microscope. What do you see?

Troubleshooting
If you are experiencing difficulty with your microscope, try these
troubleshooting techniques:
SIN | PROBLEM | CAUSE | SOLUTIONS |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Light source of microscope is dim | No battery installed or batteries are | |
dead | Install two new AA batteries in the battery compartment. Do not mix |
different types of batteries or old and new batteries.
2| Light source is bright but the image is not. or the light is not uniform|
The objective lens is not properly aligned| Rotate objective turret until it
clicks in place.
3| The image is blurry| The focus is not correctly set| Follow the
instructions to properly focus.(Refer Pg 4-6)
4| The specimen cannot be focused and the entire focus range has been used|
The specimen is too thick, or liquid is too high| Try a thinner specimen
sample or less liquid.
QA & Warning
*Q1 What should I do if there is nothing in my field of view after
switching to high magnification?
1. If you can see something under low magnification, but not after changing
to high magnification, it may be because the object is not in the center of
the field of view.
2. Turn the objective dial back to low magnification and move the specimen
back and forth until the object is in the center of the field of view.
3. Stop moving the specimen and turn the objective dial to high magnification
to make sure the object is in the center of the field of view.
4. Keep your eye on the eyepiece and turn the focusing wheel slightly until
the field of view is clear.
Q2: what should I do if I can’t see anything in my field of view?
A2:;
Reason 1: The object is not facing the objective lens.
1. Adjust the circular area on the specimen sheet and the circular hole on
the carrier table to correspond with the circular area on the specimen slice
and the circular hole on the carrier (as in Pic 1).
2. Move the specimen sheet to move the object to the center of the field of
view by aligning your eyes against the eyepiece.
Note: The direction of movement of the specimen sheet is opposite to the
direction seen in the field of view.
Reason 2 : The field of view is too dark
1. Turn on the LED light (Pic 2).Need 2 AA Batteries Not Included. Reason
3: Failure to focus
1. Rotate the focusing wheel so that the carrier first rises to the highest
position (as in Pic 3).
2. Eye alignment close to the eyepiece, slowly rotate the focus wheel to make
the carrier. Slowly rotate the focusing wheel to lower the stage (Pic 4),
until the field of view is clear.
3. If you still do not see the object after focusing, you can adjust it
according to reason one. Q3: How to observe with higher
magnification?
A3:
1. Follow the procedure in Page 4-6 to make sure you can see the object
clearly with the lowest magnification objective (100X).
2. Make sure the object is in the center of the field of view. If not, move
the specimen piece left and right until the object is in the center of the
field of view.
3. Turn the objective dial to turn the high-magnification objective lens
directly underneath. Itis recommended that the magnification be used from low
to high.
4. Align your eyes to fit the eyepiece tightly and turn the focusing wheel
slightly until the field of view is clear.
Note:** In principle, first see the object under low magnification, and
then change to high magnification.
How to use the phone holder?
- Test the main len of your phone by placing your finger in front of different cell phone lenses. The one with the finger in front of the screen is the main len.
- Put the phone holder on the eyepiece, tighten the screw.
- Put on the phone, and adjust the phone’s len.
- Adjust the distance and tighten the screw on the back.
- Adjust the angle of the phone.
