One of said arms being vertical and having ball joints at opposite ends, one connected to an adjacent arm and the other connected to the binocular microscope. An extension connected at one end to the binocular microscope and at an opposite end to a head harness for attaching to the head of an operator. Two of the arms are connected by a bearing having a vertical extension. One of the arms is pivotally connected to the vertical extension. A compressed gas cylinder is connected at one end to the vertical extension and at another end to the arm connected to the vertical extension. The arrangement is so that the operator can position the binocular microscope without use of any hands and with negligible resistance.
