Care and Maintenance
Your Celestron microscope is a precision optical instrument and should be treated with care at all times. Follow these care
and maintenance suggestions and your microscope will need very little maintenance throughout its lifetime.
•
When you are done using your microscope, remove any specimens left on the stage.
•
Turn off any electric illuminators.
•
Unplug any power cords being used.
•
Always place the dust cover over the microscope when not in use or when being stored.
•
Store the microscope in a dry and clean place.
•
Be very careful if using your microscope in direct sun light to prevent damage to the microscope or your eyes.
•
When moving your telescope, carry it by the “arm” with one hand and not by the focuser knobs, eyepiece housing,
etc. Then, put your other hand under the base for support.
•
Clean the outside surfaces (metal and plastics) with a moist cloth.
•
Always unplug any cords before cleaning.
•
Never clean optical surfaces with cloth or paper towels as they can scratch optical surfaces easily.
•
Blow off dust with a camels hair brush or an air blower from optical surfaces.
•
To clean fingerprints off of optical surfaces, use a lens cleaning agent and lens tissue available at most photo
outlets and when cleaning do not rub in circles as this may cause sleeks or scratches to occur.
•
Never disassemble or clean internal optical surfaces. This should be done by qualified technicians at the factory or
other authorized repair facilities.
•
When handling glass specimen slides, be careful as the edges can be sharp.
