Safety Precautions
5
6.
Prohibition of dismount
This product uses a laser device. Use only in the configuration set up by the Nikon representative.
To ensure safety, never attempt to remove any part of the system. Before beginning operations,
confirm that all of the parts listed below are in place. Removal of any following part during use may
result in unintended exposure of eyes or skin to laser light.
Make sure that all powers to the laser and entire system are turned off when removing an objective
or a filter cube.
Eyepiece tube, nosepiece, objective, TIRF/motorized TIRF illuminator unit, photo activation
illuminator Unit, TIRF-PAU illuminator, filter cube, sage, lamp house, HG fiber adapter,
epi-fl filter turret, 3D-STORM port, TV camera, video camera, or all port caps
7.
Do not disassemble.
Disassembling this product may result in electric shock or other hazards.
Never attempt to disassemble any piece of equipment included in this product.
In particular, disassembling any of the components when the laser is on may cause the laser light
to be improperly emitted from this product. If you notice that this product is not functioning properly,
immediately stop use, switch off the power switches to all devices, disconnect the power cables
from the outlets, and contact your nearest Nikon representative.
8.
Pre-operation check items
Before using the system, always confirm the followings.
If the following conditions are not satisfied, laser light may be irradiated from openings or reflected
from reflective objects, and unintended exposure of eyes and skin to laser light may result.
1
A cap, 3D-STORM port, a TV camera, or a video camera is attached to each port.
2
An objective or a cap is attached to each socket of the nosepiece.
3
The optical fiber for laser light is securely fixed.
4
The adapter for the HG fiber light source (or the lamphouse) is attached for epi illumination.
And the lamphouse is attached for the dia illumination.
5
The epi-fl filter turret is attached correctly. (Its cover is attached too.)
6
The field diaphragm unit is attached correctly.
7
The laser safety cover is attached on the stage. (The specimen cover is attached for TI-PAU.)
8
There is no mirror or other highly reflective piece of metal in the area surrounding the lens
aperture.
9.
Never attempt to look into the laser light.
When the laser is on, a powerful beam of light is emitted above the stage through the objective.
Never look into this beam or reflected beams. When the laser is on, put on laser safety goggles.
To prevent reflection of the laser light emitted from the objectives and resulting inadvertent
exposure of eyes or skin to laser light, never place reflective objects on the stage or in the
diascopic optical path.
