When the microscope is switched off or is not in use the turret knob should be left parked with the 10x lens in place and the turret knob in the halfway position (white mark points to the side). This ensures that the objective lens is far enough away from the stage to avoid damage, and that the turret cannot be unintentionally rotated.

The turret knob is not a focus knob. Use the coarse and fine focus knobs on the sides of the microscope stand to focus on the specimen. |
