What precautions must be taken when using a microscope when it is in high power lens?
Because you are at the highest magnification, only turn the fine adjustment knob when you are using the high-powered objective lens, and not the coarse adjustment. Otherwise you risk getting your sample out of focus, and you will probably only be able to refocusby starting with the lowest power objective lens.

What is the use of the coarse adjustment knob?
The course adjustment moves the stage of the microscope further/closer away from the objective lens (it is used for general focusing), and the fine adjustment moves the objective lens very small distances for finer focusing.
What part of the microscope should you used to focus the image when using high power objective lens?
First of all, one should never call it high power, it is morecommonly called the "high objective", yet that is not what this question is asking. To answer the question: You use the fine adjustment knob. This knob should be located near the coarse adjustment knob, on the opposite side of the microscope (at the same height as the coarse adjustment knob), or even as a separate knob protruding from the coarse adjustment knob. The fine adjustment knob is smaller in size. You should never, ever use the coarse adjustment knob under the high objective, you could scratch the microscope slide, cover slip, high objective lens, or in a worst case scenario break the high objective lens.

Which focusing knob do you never use under high power?
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.
6 How does the procedure for using the microscope differ under high power?
For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustment for high power you should only use the fine adjustment because on high power, the objective lens is too close to the slide and using the coarse adjustment may scratch the objective lens.

Coarse adjustment of what?
Why coarse adjustment screw being used with low power objective?
The depth of field is so small that a very small vertical travel could shift the focus from the top of the specimen to the bottom. A very fine adjustment must be used, which is why the coarse adjustment screw is implemented.
