Preparations for use
Balancing the surgical microscope
•
Turn on the instrument at the power switch of the suspension system.
Note:
Press one of the release keys for the magnetic brakes to set the balance
of the microscope's front-to-back and lateral tilt axes.
Warning!
To permit almost effortless guidance of the surgical microscope, the sur-
gical microscope and the suspension system used must be correctly bal-
anced. If the system is in an extremely unbalanced state, the unit can
move uncontrollably out of position. Therefore, hold the surgical micro-
scope securely at its handgrips before releasing the magnetic brakes.
Balancing the front-to-back tilt motion
•
Hold the microscope with one hand and turn knob (2) in the "-" direc-
tion until the braking function has been deactivated.
•
Use knob (1) to adjust the spring force in such a way that the surgical
microscope is balanced about its front-to-back tilt axis and remains
stationary in the viewing direction required.
•
Use knob (2) to set the friction of the front-to-back tilt motion as re-
quired.
Balancing the lateral tilt motion
•
Hold the microscope with one hand and turn knob (4) in the "-" direc-
tion until the braking function has been deactivated.
•
Use knob (3) to adjust the spring force in such a way that the surgical
microscope is balanced about its lateral tilt axis and remains stationa-
ry in the viewing direction required.
•
Use knob (4) to set the friction of the lateral tilt motion as required.
