The brightness a djustment bar at the botto m of the main inte rface also supports touch control for
brightness adjust ment.
Before visual observation, set the illuminatio n brightness t o below 20% to avoid an excessively
bright f i eld of view when observing with a low-pow er objective lens.
(Figure 4)
3.3.4 Stage Adjustment
Turn the coarse focus knob co unterclockwi se to lower the s t age to its lowest po sition.
Open the slide holder clip, place the specimen slide correctly on the stage, and secure it fir mly.
During observation, turn the X/Y control knobs to move th e observation area of the specimen to
the center posit i on of the condenser. (Figure 5)
(Figure 5)
3.3.5 Objective Lens Switching
When switching objective lenses, the display screen will show an animation of the currently
selected objective, and the main interfa ce will display the corr esponding objecti ve magnification.

3.3.6 Focusing
Do not attem pt any of the following actions, other wise the focusing m echanism may
be damaged:
● Holding one focus knob tightly while turning only th e knob on the other side.
● Turning the coarse focus knob or fi ne focus knob beyond its limit position.
The fo cus height limit of this product has b een preset at the factory and may be adjusted if
necessary.
If the image still cannot be brought into focus whe n the focus mechanism r eaches its highest
point, th e limit screw may be loosened and adjuste d so that the sp ecimen can stil l mov e upward
by 1 mm when it is at the focal plane po sition. (F i gure 7)
(Figure 7)
Swing the low-power objective into the optical path, an d slowly turn the coarse focus knob clockwise
until t he outline of the specimen image comes into view.

Swing the high-power object i ve into the optical path, and slowly turn th e fine focus knob until the
specimen image is brought into the sharpest f ocus, t hat is, until the image pl ane is in focus.
3.3.7 Condenser Adjustment
Move the ape rture diaphragm lever to ad j ust it so that it matche s the numeri cal aperture of the
objective lens and find the position that provides the b est im age c ontrast. If the specimen
image appears too pale, slowly reduce the ape rture of the iris diaphra gm until the specimen
image becomes c l early vis i ble. If the specimen ima ge appears too dark , the diaphragm may be
opened gradually. (Fig ure 8)
Please note: the smaller the aperture of the iris diaphragm, the better the im
age contrast; th e larger
the aperture, the low er the contrast. (The purp ose of t he diaphragm is not to control the brightness of
illumination.) The best procedur e for setting the aperture is to first open it to the maxi mum and then
slowly close it until the specimen is completely in focus. Using an incorrect apertu re size may cause
the image to appear washed out. Be careful not to reduce the aperture excessivel y in order to obtain
higher contrast , as this may destroy the fine st
ructural details of the specimen in the image.
Reducing the aperture increases co ntrast and depth of field, but it al so low ers resolution and
produces diffraction. For example, the aperture setting for a 10X objective is dif f erent from that for a
40X o bjective, because the angle of li ght re quired by the object i ve is determined by its N.A. value.
After u sing the mi croscope for a short period , you will be able to find the appropriate aperture
diaphragm setting easil y.
(Figure 8)
3.3.8 Oil-Immersi on Objective Lens
When using an oil- i mmersion objec t i ve lens, note the f ollowing:
The oi l -immersion objective is marked with t he word “Oil”. During use, an appropriate amount
of ceda r oil must be appli ed b etween the cover glas s an d the front lens g roup of the objective.
The cedar oil provided by Motic is a synthet i c, non- f l uorescent, resin- f ree oil with a refractive
index of 1.515.

Do not use a cover glass thic ker than 0.17 mm, as the spec i men will no t fall within the working
distance of the object i ve, whi ch will affect image forma t i on.
Use as little immersion oil as possible. Any oil film remaining on the immersion objective, or any
oil that spreads onto the surface of a dry objective, will have a significant negative effect on the
image.
Make sure there are no air bubbles in the im mersion oil, as bubbles may reduce image qualit y.
Please operate strictly according to the following steps:
After focusing on the spec i men with a low-power objectiv e, rotat e the oil-immersion objective
into the obser vation position, remove the specimen, place a drop of immer sion oi l on the
observation ar ea of the specimen, rep osition the specimen, and turn t he fine focus knob to focus
on the specime n. (Figu re 9)
Remove the eyepiece, and after safely opening the field diaphragm and aperture diaphragm,
observe t he objective exit pupil (the bright circular image) inside the observation tube to check
for air bubbl es.
If air bubbles are found, they may be removed by rotating the nos epiece to swing the immersed
objective gently from side to sid e, by adding more oil, or by wiping off t he oil and applying fresh
oil.
After u se, pr omptly and ge ntly wi pe the immersi on oil from the front lens of the objective with
gauze or le ns paper moistene d with absolute alcohol to prevent damage to the objective and to
ensure a clear image the next time the obje ctive is used.
