You are now ready to use your microscope for looking at
specimen slides or small objects through the zoom eyepiece!
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.
