Detailed explanation-1: -Always carry a microscope with both hands. Grasp the arm with one hand and place the other hand under the base for support.
Detailed explanation-2: -You need to keep your microscope steady to get a clear image of what you want to magnify. This is why the base is an important part. The size of the base depends on how heavy the microscope is. If you need to carry a microscope, make sure you place one hand under the base to support the weight of the device.
Detailed explanation-3: -Place one hand around the arm, lift the scope, then put your other hand under the base of the scope for support. If you learn to carry the scope in this way, it will force you to carry it carefully, ensuring that you do not knock it against anything while moving from one place to another.
