Turning the coarse adjustment knob when observing at high power magnification can cause the objective lens to hit the slide, potentially damaging the specimen or the lens. It can also result in a sudden shift in focus, making it difficult to observe the specimen clearly. It is recommended to use the fine adjustment knob for precision focusing at high power magnification.
The coarse adjustment knob should be used first to bring the specimen into focus at the lowest magnification. It allows for larger adjustments in focus compared to the fine adjustment knob.
Using the coarse adjustment knob on high power can potentially damage the microscope or the slide being observed due to the high magnification and close proximity of the objective lens to the slide. It is better to make coarse adjustments on low power to avoid hitting the objective lens against the slide.
Before changing from one magnification to a higher magnification, you should ensure that the current specimen is in focus at the lower magnification. This will help you maintain the clarity and sharpness of the image when transitioning to a higher magnification.
The coarse adjustment knob should be used first to bring the specimen into general focus. Then, the fine adjustment knob can be used for precise focusing.
Using the coarse adjustment on higher power can risk damaging the lens or the slide because the distance between the lens and the slide is very small. It can also cause the objective lens to hit and break the coverslip or slide. Finer adjustments should be made with the fine adjustment knob when using higher magnifications to prevent this.

You should always use the fine adjustment on a microscope when you are focusing on high-power magnifications, typically 400x and above. The fine adjustment allows for precise focusing, which is crucial for observing details without risking damage to the slide or the lens. It is also recommended to use the fine adjustment after initially focusing with the coarse adjustment to enhance clarity.
use the fine adjustment knob to get a better view of what you are looking at.For low power you can use the coarse adjustment and fine adjustmentfor 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.
The coarse adjustment knob elevates the microscope's stage up and down quickly. The fine adjustment knob does the same thing but more slowly and accurately. In other words, the fine adjustment knob should require more revolutions to elevate the stage as much as the coarse adj. knob does.
The coarse adjustment knob should be moved in a counterclockwise direction to raise the body tube.

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.
