User notice BS-3015

1. Application

This microscope is ideal for science educators, industrial enterprise, scientists and

practitioners.

2. Safety Precaution

1. Carefully open the box, avoid the accessories, like lens, dropping to ground and

being damaged.

2. Check the input voltage, be sure the input voltage which signed on the microscope is

consistent with the power supply voltage, or it will bring a serious damage to the

instrument.

3. Do keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, dusty and

easy shaking environment. Make sure the stage is smooth, horizontal and firm

enough.

4. To prevent the microscope body from turning over, its pivot angle must be limited to

30°.

5. .A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to

sudden or severe impact.

6. Make sure the instrument is earthed, to avoid lighting strike.

7. Do not disassemble any part of the microscope, especially the electrical parts on the

bottom side as this may result in electric shock.

8. Use the factory supplied power cord, please.

9. Warning against electric shock.

10. Warning: before use, carefully read the manual .improper use could result in

personal injury to the user and/or damage to the equipment.

3. Maintenance and Storage

1. All the lenses have been well checked and adjusted. It is forbidden to disassemble

them yourself.

2. The binocular viewing head and focusing unit have a compact and precise frame;

please don’t disassemble them as possibly as you can.

3. Keep the instrument clean, wipe dust regularly, and be attention to avoid

contaminating the optical elements especially.

4. The contaminations on the prism, as fingerprint and oil, could be gently wiped with a

piece of soft cloth or tissue paper, gauze which has been immersed in pure alcohol or

BestScope International Limited

ether. (Note that the alcohol and ether are highly flammable, do keep them away

from the fire or potential sources of electrical sparks, and use them in a drafty

room as possible as you can.)

5. Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the microscope components other

than the glass components. To clean them, use a lint-free, soft cloth slightly

moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

6. If the microscope is splashed by liquid during using, cut off the power at once, and

wipe up the moisture.

7. Do not disassemble any parts of the microscope, which will affect the function or

decline the performance of the microscope.

8. Place the instrument in a cool, dry position. When not using the microscope, keep it

covered with a dust cover.

Note:

Working Environment Requirement:

1. Ambient temperature: 5℃to 40℃. (41℉

to 104℉), Maximum R.H: 85%.

2. High Temperature will result in a

mildewing, dew and even ruinous

instrument.

3. Avoid placing the instrument in a dusty

environment. When ending your

microscope operation, please cover it

with the dust cover.　

4. Lay the microscope horizontally in a

stable place please.

2.2.3 Connecting the power cord (Fig.4)

1. Rotate the left and right brightness adjusting

switches①clockwise until the off state before

connecting the power cord②.

2. Insert the power plug②into the power jack of

the microscope; make sure the connection is

well.

3. Plug the power cord③into the power supply

receptacle safely. Make sure the connection is

well.

Adjustable illumination for both LEDs (top

and bottom).

Input Rating:110V～240V.

Trinocular head is optional if video or

photography function is needed.

2.2.4 Video (Photography) accessories

assembly (Fig.5, Fig.6)

1. Installing the video set: Remove the dust cap

of the trinocular viewing tube, revolve the camera

set ⑤into the screw thread end of the video

adapter④with C mount, and insert the other end

into the tri-through port and screw down the bolt⑥.

2. Installing the photography set: Remove the dust

cap of the trinocular viewing tube, install the

photography accessories⑦into the tri-through

port, and screw down the locking bolts⑥, change

the camera⑨gun with digital photography

adapter⑧, and insert the adapter into the

3. Adjustment and Operation BS-3015

3.1 Adjusting Binocular

Viewing Head

3.1.1 Adjusting interpupillary

distance (Fig.7)

Different users have different

interpupillary distances. So when users

change, re-do the interpupillary distance

adjustment.

Looking through the eyepieces, hold the

left and right side of the binocular

assembly①and adjust the eyepieces by the

direction shown in Fig.7until the left and right

fields of view coincide completely.

3.1.2 Adjusting diopter ring (Fig.8)

1. Set the dioptor rings of both eyepieces to

“o” point. (Do this when users change,

because different users have different

diopters.)

2．Place an easy-to-observe specimen on the

stage plate.

3．Rotate the zoom body knob③to get the

highest magnification, and turn the

focusing knob④to focus the specimen.

4．Rotate the zoom body knob③to get the

lowest magnification, looking only into

the left eyepiece, adjust the diopter

ring②on left eyepiece to focus the

specimen. Then do the same adjustment

for the right one.

5．Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the specimen

image can always focus without any

adverse effect of the changes of

magnification on the definition of the

image.

3.2 Focus Adjustment

3.2.1 Adjusting the rotation tension of

the focusing knob (fig.9, fig.10)

1．Rotate the focusing knob①to move the

slider②to a lower position for fear that the

zoom body drops down suddenly if the

tension is decreased too much.

2．Hold the focusing knobs①with both hands,

stop the left knob and rotate the right knob

to increase or decrease the focus knob

tension.

3. Rotate both the focusing knobs in the same

direction (otherwise it will get loose) to

move the zoom body up and down to focus

on the specimen.

3.2.2 Changing the magnifications

1. The zooming knobs located at two sides of

the zooming body could change the

magnification of the specimen image.

2. Total Magnification = Magnification of

zoom body magnification of eyepiece.

Note: While using the auxiliary objective, it

should be multiplied by its magnification

in addition.

3.2.3 Illumination

1. Use LED lamps for both top and bottom

illumination.

2. Brightness adjustment (Fig.10): the right

brightness adjustment knob③is used to

adjust the bottom illumination, and the left

brightness adjustment knob④is used to

adjust the top illumination. Each knob has

its own on-off. Rotate anticlockwise to open

the power and increase the brightness,

keeping rotating clockwise would decrease

the brightness until it is power off.
