Make sure knob is snug before letting go of the head but do not overtighten
       - If desired angle is greater then 60 degrees, pull the locking pin out away from the microscope before retightening the tilt lock knob. This should allow the microscope head to tilt up to 90 degrees. Be incredibly careful as the stage and objective will become very close at angles above 60 degrees.       - If desired angle is greater then 60 degrees, pull the locking pin out away from the microscope before retightening the tilt lock knob.
