1 Getting Ready
1. The microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.
2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations.
(For the operating conditions, refer to chapter 4, “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 11.)
3. For the objectives applicable to the microscope, see the list on page 4.
2 Maintenance and Storage
1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower and wipe
gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).
If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze slightly moistened with commercially available absolute
alcohol.
Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully.
Be sure to keep it away from open flames or potential sources of electrical sparks –– for example, electrical
equipment that is being switched on or off, which could cause ignition of a fire.
Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.
2. Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the microscope components other than the glass components. To clean
them, use a lint-free, soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
3. Do not disassemble or modify any part of the unit as this could result in malfunction or reduced performance.
Particularly, the stage support cannot be removed because it has been bonded after adjustment.
4. When not using the microscope system, make sure that the lamp housing is cool enough, and cover the microscope
system with the dust cover before storage.
5. Before disposing of this microscope, be sure to follow the regulations and rules of your local government.
