How to Use the Prepared Slides
Place the microscope on a stable, level work surface.
Hold one slide by its edges and check its label.
Secure the slide on the microscope stage with the specimen centred above the light opening.
Begin with the lowest-power objective and bring the specimen into focus.
Move to a higher-power objective only when additional detail is required.
Return to low power, lower the stage and remove the slide by its edges.
Handling note: Prepared slides are fragile. Do not use a chipped or cracked slide, and supervise students during handling.
