4. GETTING READY
●
A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or
severe impact.
●
When moving the microscope, first remove the specimens, eyepieces, and filters so that they will
not drop. Also remove other modules (e.g. lamp housing, stage) for decreasing system weight.
Then securely grasp the microscope by the rear of arms and the base.
●
Do not grasp focus adjustment knob, binocular tube, lamp housing, and stage. It may cause serious
damage to the microscope.
●
The desktop should be a level surface with an inclination of less than 3°. The microscope may
become unstable when certain intermediate attachment and/or photography unit are mounted on it.
Be careful so that the microscope does not topple down.
WARNING
The bulb, the lamp socket and areas near these will be extremely hot during and right after use. Set the
main switch off, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, then wait until lamp housing has cooled
down before moving the microscope.
