new lesson Its Parts and their Functions”
   Procedure
1. Get the microscope from its box or the cabinet. Do
this by grasping the curved arm with one hand and
supporting the base with the other hand.
2. Carry it to your table or working place. Remember
to always use both hands when carrying the
microscope.
3. Put the microscope down gently on the
laboratory table with its arm facing you. Place it
about 7 centimeters away from the edge of the table.
4. Wipe with tissue paper or old t-shirt the metal parts
of the microscope.
 5. Figure 1 shows a light microscope that most
schools have. Study and use this to locate different
parts of the microscope.
6. Look for the revolving nosepiece. Note that
objectives are attached it.
You should know that there are lenses inside the
objectives.
7. Find the coarse adjustment. Slowly turn it upwards,
then downwards.
8. Looking from the side of the microscope, raise the
body tube. Then, turn the revolving nosepiece in any
direction until the LPO is back in position.
You will know an objective is in position when it
clicks. Note that the revolving nosepiece makes
possible the changing from one objective to
another.
9. Locate the eyepiece. Notice also that it is marked
with a number and an
x. Know that the eyepiece further magnifies the
image of the object that has been magnified by
the objective. If the eyepiece is cloudy or dusty,
