Mechanical Stage
(included on model T-1903)
The mechanical stage is a mechanical way to move the slide around on your
stage. It consists of a slide holder and two knobs. The knobs are located on side
below the stage. One knob moves the slide forward and backward. The other
knob moves the slide from left to right.
BULB REPLACEMENT
a. Before changing the bulb, make sure that the power switch is off and the
power cord has been disconnected from the main supply.
b. On the bottom of your microscope use a slotted screw driver to remove the
screw on the lamp door. Pull open the lamp door and carefully remove the old
light bulb from the socket by gently pushing in and turning bulb one quarter turn
counter clockwise using the lens paper to hold the bulb. Put in new bulb and
push, and turn clockwise .
c. Avoid touching the glass surface of the bulb with bare hand. Any oil brought
onto the bulb by the bare hand will negatively affect the heat dissipation and
shorten the life of the bulb. Use two fingers and pull the bulb out touching the
metal part of the bulb. Clean the bulb surface with alcohol and lens paper if the
user has touched the bulb surface accidentally.
e. Specification of the bulb can be found on the surface of the microscope.
Replacement bulbs may be purchased on Ken-A-Vision web site under accessories

INTERCHANGING THE HEAD
Using an allen wrench, insert into arm next to head. Loosen screw to remove
plastic dust cap. Set desired microscope head on arm. Tighten screw with allen
wrench until snug. No need to over tighten.
The 100x Objective lens can be installed simply by removing nosepiece plug
from hole and screwing 100x Objective into place, until snug.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your microscope is a fine precision instrument and should be treated with care.
When not in use it should be protected from dust by the plastic cover provided.
Lenses and eyepieces should be cleaned periodically with optical lens tissue
which is soft and lint free. Painted surfaces can be cleaned with a moistened cloth.
When using a 100xR objective oil emersion lens, be sure not to leave any oil
on the lens after use. Dip a cotton swab or lens paper with a small amount of
denatured alcohol, and clean the lens surface carefully. Do not use aggressive
solvents to clean lens.
