SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Fig. 1)

IMPORTANT

1. If potentially infectious samples may be observed, use protective gloves or

other protective means to prevent the skin from contacting with samples

directly.

After observation, be sure to clean the portion contacted with samples.

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

samples. Be sure to remove the samples before moving this product.

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

take the infection prevention measures.

· Follow the procedures described in Chapter “Getting Ready” (see on

page 2) prior to using the accessories of this product. Otherwise, the

stability of the device will be lost and the dropped samples will cause

the possibility of infection.

· When you maintain the device which may have contacted with

potentially infectious reagents, be sure to wear the protectors such as

gloves, or clean the device prior to operation.

· Before disposing of device contacted with potentially infectious samples,

be sure to follow the regulations and rules of your local government.

2. Install the microscope on a sturdy, level table or bench.

3. Be careful not to tilt the microscope too much. Otherwise, the mobile

parts such as the light path selector knob may move in unintended

directions.

4. 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 performance cannot

be warranted.

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

the wall outlet are properly connected. If the equipment is not grounded,

Olympus can no longer warrant the electrical safety performance of the

equipment.

Operation Using the LED Lamp

Safety Note on LED (Light Emitting Diode)

The LED incorporated in the LED lamp housing is a class 1 LED

product. The light emitted by LED is basically safe, but do not look at

the illumination light directly for an extended period to prevent your eye

from being injured

CLASS 1 LED PRODUCT

Operation Using the Halogen Bulb

1. To avoid potential shock hazards and burns when replacing the halogen

bulb, set the main switch of the TL4 power supply unit to “ ” (OFF) and

allow the lamp socket @ and bulb to cool before touching them.

Designated bulb 6V30WHAL (PHILIPS 5761)

Always use the designated lamp bulb. Using other bulb may

cause malfunction.

2. If the lamp cable or power cord comes in contact with the lamp socket

or its surroundings, the cable or cord may be melted by the heat, causing

an electric shock or fire hazard. To prevent this, distribute the lamp cable

and power cord at enough distances from the lamp socket.

3. The standard service life of the lamp socket is eight (8) years of use or

20,000 hours of total power ON period, whichever is the shorter period.

For details, see Inspection Sheet on page 35.

CAUTION

Safety Symbols

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

in the safest possible manner.

Symbol Explanation

Indicates that the surface becomes hot, and should not be touched with bare hands.

Indicates a non-specific general hazard. Follow the description given after this symbol or in

instruction manual.

Indicates that the main switch is ON.

Indicates that the main switch is OFF.

Caution engraving/label

Caution engraving and label are placed at parts where special precaution is required when handling and using the

microscope. Always heed the cautions.

Caution engraving

position Halogen lamp socket

[Caution against high temperature]

Caution label

position Rear panel

If a caution engraving or label is dirty or peeled off, contact Olympus for the replacement or other inquiry.

1Getting Ready (Fig. 2)

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

subjecting it to sudden or severe impact. Also note that the microscope

does not have a waterproof construction.

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

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

refer to Chapter 8, “SPECIFICATIONS”.)

3. When moving the microscope, remove the observation and specimen

and carefully carry the microscope by holding the grasping part on the

rear of the arm and the front part of the base as shown in Fig. 2.

To prevent damage to the microscope, never hold it by the stage

or coarse/fine adjustment knob.

· Even when moving the microscope along the desktop surface, be sure

to remove the specimen in advance.

· When the microscope needs to be packaged for forwarding to a remote

location, contact Olympus.

4. When the accessories of this product are used, make sure that the system

height does not exceed 1 meter. Otherwise, the stability of the device will

be lost.

5. When an arm, illuminator, intermediate attachment, observation tube and

camera are to be attached to the upper part of the microscope frame,

make sure that their total weight does not exceed 7 kg.

Fig. 2

CAUTION

Restrictions in Use

When all combinations (@ to ³) below are satisfied at the same time, the microscope may fall if tilted larger than a certain

degree, comparing to other combinations. Please mount the camera port of the intermediate observation tube toward

diagonally backward 45° to prevent from falling.

@The observation tube is either the trinocular tube, U-TTBI, U-ETBI or U-TTLBI.

²The intermediate observation tube is either U-TRUS or U-DP.

³The camera heavier than 0.4kg is mounted on the intermediate observation tube described in ².

BX46

2Maintenance and Storage

1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirt 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, which could cause ignition of a fire.

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

· Set the main switch to “ ” (OFF) and wait for the lamp housing to cool down sufficiently before proceeding

to maintenance.

2. Do not 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 except for the parts that are specified to be disassembled in this manual,

as this could result in malfunction or reduced performance.

4. After using the microscope, set the main switch to “ ” (OFF), (wait for the lamp socket to cool down sufficiently if the

halogen bulb has been used,) and keep it covered with a dust cover during storage.

5. Before disposing of this product, be sure to follow the regulations and rules of your local government.

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.

CAUTION

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

: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor

or moderate injury or damage to the equipment or other property. It may also be used

to alert against unsafe practices.

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

CAUTION
