What are the proper ways in handling a compound microscope?

Ok, there are lots of things one has to do to care for a quality light microscope. So, I'll just give you some commonsense tips. 1. Don't touch any of the lens with your fingers. 2. Store the device in a clean dry box or cabinet, usually with some kind of plastic dust cover. 3. When using the High-Power objective lens, be very careful when focusing not to drive the head of the lens into the cover-slip or slide. Always visually adjust the head of the lens about 1 mm or so above the cover-slip, then looking through the eye-piece, use the "fine" focus control to bring the sample into sharp focus. 4. Always replace damaged parts and components with manufacture recommended replacements. If you must use other manufacture's parts, be sure they have the right specifications for your particular microscope. 5. When moving your microscope from place to place in the lab, use one hand to grip the microscope while supporting it at the base with your other hand. This keeps accidents and the lost of parts to a minimum. 6. Don't leave slide, sample, and cover-slip on the microscope stage for extended periods of time, and when through viewing, raise the objective lens away from the cover-slip and turn the objectives to the lowest power objective len setting. Remove the slide and put the microscope away. 7. If the microscope uses a light bulb as its light source, turn the power off when the microscope isn't actually in use. 8. Cleaning the eye-piece and objective lens, aways follow the manufacture's recommendations and instructions. Hope that helps.

What should be done when ever you are finished using a microscope?

Remove the slide or sample. Turn off the lamp or light source. Turn off power at power point. Gently wind down the higher magnification to the stop position. Clean the objective lens if oil was used ( to stop the oil oxidising on the lens). Cover the microscope to protect from dust. Carry with two hands, one under the base, the other on the neck or column. Store away from heat, light and moisture.
