Page 2

USE AS A MICROSCOPE

(Requires optional 10x eyepiece tube)

1.Rotate the light diffusing lens (item #6) until it is under the light beam.

2.Place the unit in the horizontal position.

3.View the specimen through the 10x eyepiece tube. (optional accessory for this model)

4.Bring into focus using the focusing knob (item #9)

MICROPROJECTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The microprojector will project either horizontally or vertically. When used with a large group or entire class, project from the horizontal position. For small groups or an individual, projectect vertically. Use whenever possible, as everyone sees the same image, making it ideal for study, discussions, and lectures.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions covering the use of the Ken-A-Vision Microprojector Model Tech A-11 apply except for the following:

1.Under”Vertical Projection” discard #4.

2.Under”Vertical Projection” discard #8.

LIGHT POLARIZATION

1.Rotate the polarizing lens/analyzer (item #5-darker lens and #14) until the lens es are beneath the light beam.

2.Place a slide containing polarizing material on the stage item (item#8).(Option to prepare a slide, crumple a small amount of cellophane from a cigarette wrapper, stick it to a strip of scotch tape approximately 2 inches long; then place it on a slide).

3.Bring into focus and change colors by turning the polarizing lens/analyzer.

(requires optional 10x eyepiece tube)

1.Rotate the light diffusing lens (item#6-white) until it is under the light beam.

2.Place the unit in the horizontal position.

3.View the specimen through the 10X eyepiece tube. (Purchase as an accessory.)

4.Bring into focus using the focusing knob (item#9).

LAMP REPLACEMENT- ALL MICROPROJECTORS

1.When a lamp burns out, the switch MUST be placed in the “off” position and the unit UNPLUGGED.

2.DO NOT replace until lamp has cooled.

3.Remove the lamp housing cap screws (item#2), lift off the lamp housing cap (item #1), and replace the defective lamp. Use KAVGE EKL 150W lamp.Use as soft cloth when replacing the lamp - Do Not touch with your bare hands

VERTICAL PROJECTION

1.Turn the switch to the “ON” position.

2.Place a white sheet of paper between the legs of the base.

3.Rotate lenses (item #5 and #6) and mirror (item #15), so the light beam will not be obstructed.

4.Rotate revolving lens turrent (item #10) containing the three lenses, (item #11) is positioned over until the 16mm lens so the light beam penetrates it.

5.Rotate the Dust Proof Revolving disk (item #14) until the RED “C” on the side of the disk is directly under the RED line on your upper disk.

6.Place a specimen slide between the prongs of the mechanical stage (item #7) or under the stage clips, and center it under the light.

7.Using the focusing knob (item #9), at either side, lower the stage (item #8) to the lowest position and then reverse the direction until the specimen is brought into focus.

8.To use the 5x Wide Field auxiliary lens, rotate the revolving dust proof revolving disk (item #14) until the RED “A” is under the RED line on the upper disk.
