You should have already used the Coarse adjustment on 10x so when you switch to 40x, all you need to do is fine adjust it. Plus, you don't want to break it by turning the Coarse up all the way.
When using the scanner and low objective on a microscope, you should use the coarse focus knob to bring the specimen into approximate focus and then use the fine focus knob to achieve a sharp image. Adjusting the height of the stage may also be necessary to fine-tune the focus.
The fine adjustment knob is used with the power objective on the microscope. Since the objective is already at the highest objective possible for that microscope, using the coarse adjustment knob would focus to much on the object making the details harder to read. Using the fine adjustment knob, you are able to see the fine details within the object or organism you are studying. The higher the power, the finer the knob and the lower the objective, the coarser the knob and objective.
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.
The coarse focus knob adjusts the distance between the objective lens and the specimen at a fast rate, while the fine focus knob adjusts the distance at a slower rate for precise focusing. Together, they help in achieving a sharp and clear image of the specimen under the microscope.
Turning the fine adjustment knob moves the objective lenses the smallest vertical distance with precision, while turning the coarse adjustment knob moves the lenses the greatest vertical distance quickly.

First focus the microscope on the lowest objective using first the coarse djustment knob and then the fine adjustment knob. Once you have it in focus, move on and do the same for the next highest objective. Continue this process until you reach the highest objective and focus it in the same fashion.
You would use the coarse adjustment knob to quickly bring the specimen into view, and then the fine adjustment knob to focus on the details of the specimen.
To click the scanning objective lens into place, adjust the fine focus knob until the image comes into focus. Then, turn the objective lens turret to the desired magnification and listen for a click indicating that the lens is locked. Finally, check the focus again to ensure the lens is securely in place.
Coarse focus on a microscope is used only when you are using the lowest objective lens. You use it to get the object magnified mostly. The fine focus is then used to adjust the resolution to the viewer's eyesight.
You typically start with the low-power objective lens and the coarse focus knob when focusing your microscope. This allows you to bring the specimen into view quickly and then fine-tune the focus using the high-power objective lens and the fine focus knob.
No, the fine focus knob moves the objective lens closer to or further from the specimen to achieve sharp focus; it does not move the stage up and down. The stage adjustment knobs are used to move the stage to position the specimen under the objective lens.
The fine adjustment screw is used when focusing the 40X objective. The coarse adjustment screw should only be used with lower magnifications to bring the specimen into rough focus.
The coarse focus knob is responsible for moving the body tube and objective up and down to help focus on the specimen. This knob allows for larger, quicker adjustments to the focus compared to the fine focus knob.
The low power objective lens in a light microscope is manipulated by rotating the nosepiece to engage the correct lens. Then, use the coarse focus knob to move the objective lens close to the specimen until it is in focus. Finally, use the fine focus knob to fine-tune the focus for a clear view of the specimen.
