- Stereo objective
- Eyepieces
- Illumination (LED)
- Microscope stage (with object plate)
- Stage clips
- Focus knob
- On/off switch

Location
Before you start, choose an ideal location for using your microscope. It is important that you have enough light available (window, desk lamp).
Simple Observation
Place the object to be observed (for example, a rock) in the middle of the microscope stage (5). When the object is large enough, it is best to fix it in place with the stage clips (6).
Now, take a look through the binocular eye lens (1) and change the distance of the eyepiece (3), so that you have a circular, clear image.
The sharpness is adjusted by slowly turning the focus knob (7).
Illumination
Turn off the illumination (4) with the On/Off switch (8). Remove both eyepieces (3) from the eyepiece supports (1) and turn the entire microscope over. In the base of the microscope there is a battery compartment (9).
Loosen the 6 fixing screws (10) of the battery compartment cover and remove the cover.
Place the batteries in the compartment so that the flat minus poles (-) press against the spring terminal and the plus poles (+) are touching the flat contact sheets (11). Put on the cover and fix it with the 6 screws (10). Turn the microscope over again. Place the eyepieces back on.
You can not turn on the light (4) with the on/off switch (8) on the base of the microscope.
TIPS on cleaning
Remove the device from it’s energy source before cleaning (remove plug from socket / remove batteries).
Clean the exterior of device with a dry cloth. Do not use cleaning fluids so as to avoid causing damage to electronic components.
Protect the device from dust and moisture. Store the device in the bag supplied or in its original packaging. Batteries should be removed from the device if it is not going to be used for a long period of time.
Clean the lens (objective and eyepiece) only with the cloth supplied or some other soft lint-free cloth (e.g. micro-fibre). Do not use excessive pressure – this may scratch the lens.
Dampen the cleaning cloth with a spectacle cleaning fluid and use it on very dirty lenses.
