12V50WHAL-L (LIFE JC)

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.

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

specimen. 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.

· The product becomes unstable if its height is increased by an accessory

mounted on it. In this case, take anti-toppling measures to prevent the

specimen from being dropped when the product topples down.

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. The surfaces of the lamp housing on the rear of the microscope will

become extremely hot during operation. When installing the microscope,

make sure to allow ample free space (10 cm or more) around and in

particular above the lamp housing.

4. When installing the microscope, route the power cord away from the

lamp housing. Should the power cord come in contact with the hot lamp

housing, the power cord could melt and cause electric shock.

5. 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 housing‚ and bulb to cool

before touching. (Fig. 1)

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

the manufacturer or an authorized agent).

6. 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.

7. 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.

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

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

damage.

Symbol Explanation

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

Before use, carefully read the instruction manual. Improper use could result in personal injury to

the user and/or damage to the equipment.

Indicates that the main switch is ON.

Indicates that the main switch is OFF.

1Getting Ready

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.

Warnings

Warning engraving is placed at parts where special precaution is required when handling and using the microscope.

Always heed the warnings.

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 5, “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. 2 (Weight: approx.

16 kg).

# Before transporting the microscope, be sure to remove the speci-

men, eyepieces and color glass filter so that they will not drop. Also

remove other modules attached to the microscope because they

increase the system weight.

# 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 BX51 series can be used with up to two intermediate attachments

(e.g. a U-CA magnification changer, U-EPA2 eyepoint adjuster, etc.). For

restrictions when using two intermediate attachments, make sure to read

the instruction manual provided with the respective intermediate attach-

ments.

# The microscope may become unstable when its height is increased

by mounting certain modules on it. In such a circumstance, take

measures to prevent the microscope from toppling down and

dropping the specimen.

2Maintenance and Storage

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.

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.

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.

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).
