* The CH3-BI45 binocular tube, CH3-TR45 trinocular tube, and CK40-TBI Tilting binocular tube are all

mountable. The CK40-EPA eyepoint adjuster can also be used, but not in combination with the CK40-

TBI. The only usable intermediate observation tube is the CK40-EPA. Relief phase contrast observa-

tion is not available when the CK40-EPA is used.

** In addition to the standard stage plate, you can mount the CK40-CPG glass stage plate or IX-CP50

stage plate ( 50). Only 20X-or-less objectives should be used with the CK40-CPG.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Install the microscope on a stable, horizontal table. Make sure the table is

sturdy enough to support the microscope’s weight. (Weight: CK30 –– approx.

8 kg (17.6 lb); CK40 –– approx. 8.6 kg (18.9 lb))

2. When transporting the microscope, always hold the lower side @ of the

observation tube and the illumination unit support ².

3. If a culture solution or water is spilled on the stage, objective or observa-

tion tube, unplug the power cord and dry it off immediately. Failure to do

so could cause equipment failure.

4. The surface of the lamp socket ³ on the lamp housing support can get

extremely hot. Make sure you leave sufficient space around the lamp

socket, especially above it, to dissipate heat. (Fig. 1)

5. To avoid potential shock hazards and burns when replacing the bulb,

make sure the main switch is set to “\” (OFF), the power cord is un-

plugged from the outlet, and that the lamp and the area around the lamp

socket have cooled sufficiently. (Fig. 2)

Applicable bulb Halogen bulb, 6V 30WHAL (Philips 5761)

6. Be sure to use an Olympus-specified power cord. Safety and performance

cannot be guaranteed otherwise.

7. Be sure to ground the unit. The designated electrical safety standard

cannot be guaranteed otherwise.

[Warning against high temperature]

1Getting Ready

1. A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or severe impacts.

2. Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations. (For operating conditions, refer

to “8. Specifications” on page 26.)

3. Use the tension adjustment ring to adjust the tension of the coarse adjustment knob.

4. Use a flat-head screwdriver to set the voltage selector on the rear panel of the microscope body to the required voltage.

}The selector is factory preset to the high-voltage side (110 – 120 V or 230 – 240 V).

2Maintenance and Storage

1. Clean all glass components by wiping gently with gauze. To remove fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe with gauze slightly

moistened with a mixture of ether (70%) and alcohol (30%).

# Do not use a mixture of ether (70%) and alcohol (30%) to clean the lower lens (made of optical plastic) of the

eyepiece (NCWHK10X) because such solvents cloud the lens. If dust adheres to the lens, blow it off or wipe it away

gently with a dry cloth.

Since solvents such as ether and alcohol are highly flammable, they must be handled carefully. Be sure to keep

these chemicals 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 these chemicals only in a well-

ventilated room.

2. Many parts of the exterior are made of plastic. Wipe the unit with a clean cloth only. Do not use organic solvents to clean

non-optical components. If smudges are difficult to remove, wipe them with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted

neutral detergent.

3. Be careful not to spill any liquid –– such as a culture solution –– on the unit. If you do spill anything, immediately set the

main switch to “ ” (OFF) and unplug the power cord. Then wipe away any liquid on the objectives or under the objectives.

4. If no objectives are mounted, be sure to cover the objective mounting threaded holes on the revolving nosepiece to

prevent dust and spilled culture solution from getting on the lenses inside.

5. Never disassemble any part of the unit. Doing so could cause malfunctions or reduced performance.

6. When the unit is not in use, keep it covered with a dust cover. Make sure the lamp socket is cool before covering the unit.

7. Using a device that radiates ultraviolet light such as a germicidal lamp near the unit may discolor (yellow) parts of the

unit´s surface. The amount of discoloration depends on the radiation intensity of the ultraviolet light and the distance

between the unit and radiation source. When not using the unit, cover it with the dust cover. We recommend that you also

cover the unit with an impermeable sheet.

3 Caution

If the equipment 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.

2-2 Detailed Assembly Procedure

1Mounting and Replacing the Bulb (Fig. 3)

}Use only the specified Philips 5761 halogen bulb, 6 V 30 W HAL.

To prevent reduced bulb life or cracking, do not touch the bulb with

bare hands. If fingerprints are accidentally left on the bulb, wipe the

bulb with a soft cloth.

1. Hold the bulb @ with gauze or other protective material and insert the

bulb pins ² into the lamp socket’s pin holes ³ as far as they will go.

# Insert the bulb gently. Squeezing too hard will damage the bulb.

Bulb replacement during use or after use:

The bulb and the lamp socket surfaces and vicinity will be extremely

hot during use and right after use. Set the main switch to “ \ ” (OFF)

and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. Then allow the

old bulb, lamp housing and vicinity to cool before replacing the bulb.

2Installing the Transmitted Illumination Unit (Fig. 4)

1. While aligning the indicator groove ² on the transmitted illumination unit

@ with the notch ³ on the lamp housing support´s brace, insert the

illumination unit @ gently into the support’s brace.

2. Turn the illumination unit @ 90° clockwise so that “ AS ” on the filter

holder faces directly to the front. Then tighten the clamping screw ƒ

using the Allen wrench provided with the microscope body to fix it se-

curely.

3Installing the Lamp Socket (Fig. 5)

1. Connect the plug @ with the socket pin ². Then, while aligning the

guide pins ³ with the condenser’s guide holes |, push the lamp socket

gently onto the Illumination unit.

4Mounting the Objectives (Fig. 6 & 7)

#First raise the revolving nosepiece slightly to remove the transporta-

tion pad on the nosepiece’s base.

}Keep the transportation pad in a safe place. You will need it when the

equipment is sent for repair or transported to another location.

1. Turn the coarse adjustment knob @ towards the back until the revolving

nosepiece is set at its lower limit. (Fig. 6)

2. Screw the objective with the lowest magnification into the revolving nose-

piece from the left side. Then turn the nosepiece clockwise and mount

the remaining objectives in order of magnification –– from low to high.

}Mounting the objectives this way makes it easier to change magnifica-

tion.

}With the CK40, the objectives can be mounted through the opening on

the stage.

#Clean the objectives periodically. The objective tips on a culture

microscope are susceptible to dust.

#Be sure to cover any unused threaded holes with the objective cap

² to prevent dirt and dust from getting inside. (Fig. 7)

5Mounting the Stage Extension

Plate/Mechanical Stage (Fig. 8)

}The stage extension plate can be mounted on the left or right side of the

stage to expand the stage surface. However, the stage extension plate

and mechanical plate cannot be used simultaneously on the same side.

Mounting the CK2-SS Stage Extension Plate

Screw the clamping screws @ into the stage extension plate and then

into the plain stage from above on the right side or from below on the left

side. Tighten them with a coin or similar tool until the plate is securely

attached.

Mounting the CK40-MVR Mechanical Stage

}This can also be mounted on either the left or right side of the stage.

Mount it in the same way as the stage extension plate.
