Fine adjustment knob
coarse
Two knobs are used to get a clear image on low power. The coarse adjustment knob is used to make drastic changes to the image, and the fine adjustment knob is used to make small adjustments to the image. The reason two knobs are used is because you are supposed to get as clear an image as possible on low power before moving on to the next power, and same with medium power.
it could be either coarse or fine knob. coarse knob is used to focus image at higher magnification, while fine knob is used to focus on lower magnification
The coarse adjustment knob should never be used when viewing in high power with a compound microscope. When in high power, use the coarse adjustment (the knob smaller than the coarse adj.) to more accurately focus on the subject.

The course adjustment knob raises and lowers the stage of the microscope. This knob is mainly used on the scanning and low power knob to simply find the specimen. When trying to focus directly, use the fine adjustment knob.
The fine adjustment knob is the adjuster that is used in high power. It provides better control over the depth movement adjustment of the microscope.

You use the Fine Adjustment Knob to give a very clear image on the microscope, mostly used on high power magnification.
Couse focus knob
This allows for small adjustments to the focus. Usually the large focus is used with smaller powers (not zoomed in as much), to locate the specimen and move it closer (or further away) from the lens. The fine focus knob is used once the specimen is almost in focus, or if you are on high power.
