Location
Before you start, choose an ideal location for using your microscope. It is important that you have enough light available, such as from a window or desk lamp.

Simple Observation
Place the object to be observed (for example, a rock) in the middle of the microscope stage (5). When possible, it is best to fix the object to be observed 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 see a circular, clear image.
Adjust the sharpness of the image by slowly turning the focus knob (7).

Illumination
To illuminate objects to be observed, 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). Push the clamp closure (10) and open the battery compartment by pulling the cover open diagonally.

Place the two AA 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. Close the battery compartment with the cover and turn the microscope around again. Place the eyepieces back on. You can now turn on the light (4) with the on/off switch (8) on the base of the microscope.

  • Only use a dry cloth to clean the exterior of the device. To avoid damaging the electronics, do not use any cleaning fluid.
