TRANSMITTED LIGHT BRIGHTFIELD OBSERVATION PROCEDURE

Correct assembly and adjustments are critical for the microscope to exhibit its full performance. If you are going to assemble

the microscope yourself, please read section 8, “ASSEMBLY” (pages 28 to 30) carefully.

IMPORTANT — Be sure to read this section for safe use of the equipment. —

1. After the equipment has been used in an observation of a specimen that

is accompanied with a potential of infection, clean the parts coming in

contact with the specimen to prevent infection.

· Moving this product is accompanied with the risk of dropping the speci-

men. Be sure to remove the specimen before moving this product.

· In case the specimen is damaged by erroneous operation, promptly

take the infection prevention measures.

2. Install the microscope on a sturdy, level table or bench so as not to block

the air vents on the underside of the base.

Do not place the microscope on a flexible surface, as this could result in

blocking the air vents and cause overheating or a fire.

3. To prevent obstruction of the natural convection-based air cooling of the

microscope, make sure to leave at least 10 cm of free space between

walls or other objects, and the left, right and rear sides of the microscope

and the lamp socket when installing the microscope.

4. To avoid potential shock hazards and burns when replacing the light

bulb, set the main switch @ to “ ” (OFF) then disconnect the power

cord from the wall outlet in advance. Whenever you replace the bulb

during use or right after use, allow the lamp socket ² and bulb to cool

before touching. (Figs 1 & 2)

IMPORTANT

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

This microscope employs a UIS2/UIS (Universal Infinity System) optical design, and should be used only

with UIS2/UIS eyepieces, objectives and condensers for the BX2 series. (Some of the modules designed for

the BX series and objectives/eyepieces for the UIS series are also usable. For details, please consult Olympus

or the catalogues.) Less than optimum performance may result if inappropriate accessories are used.

Designated bulb 6V30WHAL (PHILIPS 5761)

# The microscope also incorporate a fuse (this should be replaced by

the manufacturer or authorized agent).

5. Always use the power cord provided by Olympus. If no power cord is

provided, please select the proper power cord by referring to the section

“PROPER SELECTION OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD” at the end of

this instruction manual. If the proper power cord is not used, product

safety and performance cannot be guaranteed.

6. Always ensure that the grounding terminal of the microscope and that

of the wall outlet are properly connected. If the equipment is not

grounded/earthed, Olympus can no longer warrant the electrical safety

and performance of the equipment.

7. Never insert metallic objects into the air vents of the microscope frame

as this could result in electrical shock, personal injury and equipment

damage.

8. The power cord may be melt by the heat of lamp socket if the cord

comes in contact with it. Distribute the power cord at an enough dis-

tance from the lamp socket.

1Getting Ready

The following symbols are found on the microscope. Study the meaning of the symbols and always use the equip-

ment in the safest possible manner.

Warning engraving/stickers are placed at parts where special precaution is required when handling and using the

microscope. Always heed the warnings.

Should warning stickers become soiled, peeled off, etc., contact Olympus for replacement.

1. A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid

subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.

2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight, high

temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations. (For the operating condi-

tions, refer to section 6, “SPECIFICATIONS”.)

3. When moving the microscope, remove the specimen and modules that

may drop during transport and carefully carry it with the grasping part

on the rear of the arm and the base as shown in Fig. 3 (Weight: approx.

14 k g ) .

# Damage to the microscope will occur if you grasp it by the stage,

coarse/fine adjustment knob or binocular section of the observa-

tion tube.

4. The BX45 can be used with only one intermediate attachment.

1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower and wipe

gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).

If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze slightly moistened with commercially available absolute

alcohol.

Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully.

Be sure to keep it away from open flames or potential sources of electrical sparks –– for example, electrical

equipment that is being switched on or off.

Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.

2. Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the microscope components other than the glass components. To clean

them, use a lint-free, soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

3. Do not disassemble any part of the microscope as this could result in malfunction or reduced performance.

4. When not using the microscope, keep it covered with a dust cover.

5. When disposing of the microscope. Check the regulations and rules of your local government and be sure to

observe them.

2Maintenance and Storage

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case

the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

FCC WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This device complies with the requirements of directive 98/79/EC concerning in vitro diagnostic

medical devices. CE marking means the conformity to the directive.

The following symbols are used to set off text in this instruction manual.

: Indicates that failure to follow the instructions in the warning could result in bodily harm to the

user and/or damage to equipment (including objects in the vicinity of the equipment).

# : Indicates that failure to follow the instructions could result in damage to equipment.

} : Indicates commentary (for ease of operation and maintenance).

3Caution

If the microscope is used in a manner not specified by this manual, the safety of the user may be imperiled. In addition,

the equipment may also be damaged. Always use the equipment as outlined in this instruction manual.
