Put the microscope stand on a
solid table.
First insert the Bertrand lens
attachment, use the 2mm
Allen wrench to tighten the
screw.
All screws are already inser-
ted into each threaded hole.
(Fig.1)
Unpacking
The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the edge of the container
and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the optical items (objectives and eyepieces)
fall out and get damaged. Using both hands (one around the arm and one around the base), lift the microscope
from the container and put it on a stable desk.
Assembling
Once you open the box, these are the microscope’s components:
① Condenser
② Optical head
③ Main body
④ Eyepieces
⑤ Power supply
⑥ Stage
⑦ Objectives
⑧ Bertrand lens and analyzer
⑨ Retardation plates

Insert the condenser under
the stage: position until it is
well inserted into its holder
(under the condenser there is
a pin that must fully enter the
guide of the holder). (Fig. 4)
AFTER INSERTING THE
CONDENSER, TIGHTEN
THIS SCREW
Insert the optical head above
the Bertrand lens, using the
other 3mm Allen wrench to
tighten the screw. (Fig.2)
Insert both eyepieces into
the tubes of the optical head.
(Fig.3)
SPRING
Mount the rotating stage: at
the bottom of the stage there
is a spring, push this spring
toward the stage support ①,
then push the stage
downward ②. (Fig.5)

Insert the retardation plates
by sliding them into the slot
under the optical head. (Fig.7)
Center each objective using
the provided screwdrivers
(see chapter using the micro-
scope). (Fig.8)
Insert the power supply jack
on the connector at the rear.
(Fig.9)
Screw each objective into the
thread of the nosepiece, in
order of magnication. (Fig.6)

B-1000 illumination can be managed through
the keyboard placed on the left of the stand:
1) ON-OFF: press this button to turn on or off
the LED illuminator.
2) BOOST: press this button in order to incre-
ase the brightness (useful for high-magnica-
tion objectives or very opaque specimens).
2) AUTO-OFF: if you want the illuminator to
switch off automatically, press this button until
15, 30 or 60 minutes delay is set. After this
period of time, the light will turn off. You have
to press the ON-OFF button to turn it on again.
(Fig.12)
In order to activate the transmitted light illu-
minator, insert the plug of the external power
supply into the socket and turn on the main
switch on the side of the main body. Press
the ON-OFF button on the control keyboard
and turn the brightness adjustment knob to a
brightness suitable for observation. (Fig.13)
Do not enable boost mode while observing with
low magnication objectives (4x, 10x) with fully
open diaphgram: the high brightness may hurt
user’s eyes.
