MODEL #44127

ENGLISH

Congratulations on your Celestron microscope purchase. Your

new microscope is a precision optical instrument, made of high

quality materials to ensure durability and long life. It is designed

to give you a lifetime of enjoyment with a minimal amount of

maintenance.

Before attempting to use your microscope, please read through

the instructions to familiarize yourself with the functions and

operations to maximize your experience. Refer to the microscope

diagrams to locate the parts discussed in this manual.

The microscope provides high powers from 40x to 600x. It

is ideally suited for examining specimen slides of yeasts and

molds, cultures, plant and animal parts, ﬁbers, bacteria, etc.

You can also examine small and thin objects at low powers such

as coins, rocks, insects, various materials, etc. You can also

explore the exciting microscopic world by creating your own

specimen slides. An excellent book to get you started, which

describes various projects and activities along with techniques,

is “The World of the Microscope” by Usborne.

The ﬁnal section of this manual provides simple care and

maintenance tips for you to follow to ensure that your

microscope provides you with years of quality performance,

usage, and enjoyment.

MAGNIFICATION TABLE

Use the following table to determine the magniﬁcation

for the different eyepiece/objective lens combination of your

microscope.

1. Take the Styrofoam container out of the carton.

2. Remove the tape from the Styrofoam container holding the

various parts in place.

3. Carefully remove the microscope and other parts from the

container and set them on a table, desk, or other

ﬂat surface.

4. Remove the plastic bag covering the microscope.

5. Remove the plastic cap from the zoom eyepiece

Fig. 1 (1).

6. Install the batteries for the bottom illuminator in the base

Fig. 1 (11) of the microscope which uses two AA batteries

(user supplied). See Figure , showing the battery 3a

compartment closed at the back of the microscope. Figure

3 shows the batteries being installed in the compartment b

(see the inside of the battery compartment door to locate

where the positive (+) and negative (-) ends of the batteries

go). Pull out on the door to open it while holding the base

ﬁrmly and push ﬁrmly to close it after the batteries are

installed.

You are now ready to use your microscope for looking at

specimen slides or small objects through the zoom eyepiece!

SETTING UP YOUR MICROSCOPE

VIEWING A SPECIMEN

Carefully place a specimen slide under the stage clips Fig.

1 (8) and center the specimen directly over the hole in the

center of the stage Fig. 1 (7). Figure 4 shows the stage area a

with the hole in the center and Figure 4 shows a specimen b

slide centered over the hole in the stage. It will take some

experimenting to place slides or objects in the center of the

stage as the image you see is upside down and reversed

but after some usage you will have an easy time centering.

Read the sections below on Focusing, Changing Power, and

Illumination before proceeding.

You are now ready to focus and view the specimen, but ﬁrst

you must take some precautions so you do not damage a

specimen slide or valuable object. When using the higher

powers while you are focusing, make sure that the objective

lens does not hit the slide or object being viewed.

FOCUSING & CHANGING POWER (MAGNIFICATION)

Now that the specimen slide (or object) is placed directly

under the objective lens, use the focus knob Fig. 1 (9) to

focus on the specimen. Note that for very small objects, you

should set them on the clear slide with a recessed hold in

the center.

1. Always start with the lowest power (4x objective lens) and

have the zoom eyepiece at the 10x position, all the way

counterclockwise (when you are facing the microscope from

the front) until it stops, so that the total power is 40x – this is

the most useful power for solid objects.

2. For slightly higher power, you can rotate the knurled ring

on the zoom eyepiece (see Figure 5) clockwise to obtain

powers of 40x to 80x (or anywhere in between) as you

continue rotating to the 20x eyepiece position. Note that

you will have to refocus whenever you rotate the eyepiece

to obtain a sharp focus.

3. For much higher powers, you will have to rotate the

nosepiece Fig. 1 (5) to change the objective lens to 15x

(provides total power of 150x to 300x depending on what

position you have the zoom eyepiece in or 30x provides total

power of 300x to 600x). You rotate the nosepiece by holding

the microscope above the nosepiece with one hand and

rotate the nosepiece with the other hand until it clicks at the

position. Be cautious not to let the objective lens touch the

specimen slide or object when changing to higher powers

– you should turn the focus knob ﬁrst to lower the stage to

a low position. Note the power range of the objective lens

you are using is shown on the nosepiece after it clicks into

position.

4. At the highest powers, your views will be greatly magniﬁed

but somewhat darker. The most enjoyable views can be

at the lower powers which have a wider ﬁeld of view and

brighter illumination.

ILLUMINATION

To get the sharpest and best views, the illumination (lighting)

will have to be adjusted.

1. The top illuminator Fig. 1 (3) is used only for solid objects

(not specimen slides) so that light shines down onto the

object. Push the button on the top of the illuminator to turn

it on/off. After some usage, you can determine the best way

of adjusting the light to provide the most pleasant views.

2. The bottom illuminator Fig. 1 ( is used for specimen 10)

slides which shine up through the hole in the stage through

the slide. You can see a close up of the illuminator in Figure

6a below. The illuminator is turned on by rotating it so the

light goes up through the hole. You turn off the illuminator

by rotating it down so that the mirror is on the upper part

(the mirror is not useful with this microscope since you

have the much better electric illuminator).

3. The light from the bottom illuminator can be increased or

decreased by rotating it with very slight movements.

4. The bottom illumination may be too bright with some

specimen slides. Included with your microscope is a light

diffuser which reduces the brightness and glare somewhat

and can make the views sharper with a higher contrast

level. In Figure the diffuser is the small black piece. The 6a

diffuser ﬁts over the bulb area by press ﬁtting it on. Figure

6b shows what the illuminator looks like with the light

diffuser in place. It will take experimenting to get this right.
