The field for the high power objective is very small, so if you do not have the organism or whatever you want to view in focus on a lower power, it may be very difficult to find on high power. Also, the lens for the higher power objectives are longer than the lower ones, which makes them closer physically to the slide that you are viewing than the lower objectives. Thus you must use the fine tuning knob to sharpen the image in high power, because you could break the slide if you use the course adjustment knob.
The low power objective typically has a lower magnification level (e.g., 4x or 10x) compared to the high power objective (e.g., 40x or 100x), and it usually has a wider field of view. The high power objective will provide a closer magnified view of the specimen but with a narrower field of view. You can often find the magnification level labeled on the side of the objectives.

The low power objective is used first for two reasons: First, focusing the low power objective will insure that the other objectives will be at the proper height. Smashing a slide with an objective can damage the objective. Second, you can see a greater area with the low powered objective. This allows you to easily locate an object of interest, center it in frame and then zoom in on it.
The nosepiece of a microscope holds multiple objective lenses, each with different magnification levels that range from high to low power. Rotating the nosepiece allows you to switch between these objective lenses to adjust the magnification of your specimen.
The high power objective has a shorter focal length and narrower field of view compared to the low power objective. This can cause the specimen to move out of the field of view when switching from low to high power, especially if it was not centered properly. Adjusting the mechanical stage to re-center the specimen or refocusing the microscope may help bring the specimen back into view on high power.
The high-power objective magnifies the image 4x.
The high power objective on a compound microscope typically has a magnifying power of 40x or 50x.

The coarse focus knob should be used with the low power objective but not with the high power objective. The point of using the coarse focus knob is to bring the specimen into general focus before fine-tuning with the high power objective, which requires more precise adjustments.
