Assembly

To prevent electrical shock or fire, turn off the power switch of the power supply

(flip the switch to the "O" side) during assembly. The electrical power should be

supplied after assembling the microscope system.

• When assembling the microscope, assemble the eyepiece tube first.

• To carry the microscope, first detach the lamp house. Tilt the microscope

body while supporting it and then securely hold it by the base.

• Never grasp the focus knobs, the eyepiece tube, the sliding nosepiece, the

stage, or so on when carrying the microscope system. This may cause the

part to come off, resulting in damage to the microscope system.

• Be careful not to pinch your hands or fingers when setting up the

microscope.

• Scratches or fingerprints on the lenses will adversely affect the image. Be

careful not to scratch or touch the lens surfaces.

• This microscope system is a precision optical instrument. Handle it

carefully and do not subject it to a strong physical shock. (In particular,

objectives may loose accuracy when exposed to even a weak physical

shock.)

Installation location

This microscope system is a precision optical instrument. So, the usage or storage in an

inappropriate environment may result in malfunctions or poor performance. Consider the

following factors when selecting an installation location:

• Avoid bright locations where the product is exposed to direct sunlight or immediately

under room lights. If there is excessive ambient light, the image quality deteriorates.

• Choose a location that is free from considerable dust or dirt.

• Choose a flat surface with little vibration.

• Choose a sturdy desk or table for the base of the microscopy system.

• Do not install the microscope system in a hot or humid location. Using or storing the

product in a hot or humid location may result in mold formation or condensation on lenses,

performance degradation, or malfunctions.
