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-topping measures to

prevent the specimen from being dropped when the product topples

down.

2. To avoid potential shock hazard and fire, always set the main switch @

to “ ” (OFF) and disconnect the power cord from the AC receptacle

at the rear of the microscope and from the wall outlet before replacing

the bulb. Allow the lamp housing cover ² and the bulb to cool before

touching them.

3. Install the microscope on a sturdy, level table.

The air vents on the underside of the base should never be blocked

by placing the microscope on a flexible surface such as a carpet, as

this could result in overheating and cause a fire.

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,

Olympus can no longer warrant the electrical safety and performance

of the equipment.

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

microscope base. Should the power cord come in contact with the hot

microscope base, the power cord could melt and cause electric shock.

6. Connect the power cord correctly and ensure that the grounding

terminal of the power supply and that of the wall outlet are properly

connected. If the equipment is not grounded, Olympus can no longer

warrant the electrical safety and performance of the equipment.

7. Never set the main switch @ to “ ” (ON) while any metallic object is

inserted into the air vents of the microscope frame as this will result in

electrical shock, personal injury and equipment damage.

8. When the microscope is not in use or when it is malfunctioning,

disconnect the power cord plug from the AC receptacle or from the

wall outlet.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Fig. 1

IMPORTANT

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

eyepieces, objectives and condensers, etc. (Other modules described on page 21 may also be usable with this

microscope. For details, please consult Olympus or the catalogue.) Less than optimum performance may result if

inappropriate accessories are used.

CX41

Getting Ready

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

environment conditions, refer to and adhere to the conditions specified

in Chapter 5, SPECIFICATIONS on page 19.)

3. The tension of the coarse focus adjustment knob should only be

adjusted by means of the tension adjustment ring.

4. Heat from the microscope is led away by natural convection.

Consequently, leave an enough space (10 cm or more) on the rear of

the microscope and ensure that the room is well ventilated.

5. When moving the microscope, carefully carry it with one hand under

the base @ and the other hand holding at the recessed handle on the

rear of the arm ² as shown in the illustration on the left.

#Damage to the microscope will occur if you hold it by the stage, X-

axis/Y-axis knob, binocular section of the observation tube, etc.

Also make sure that eyepieces, specimen, filters, etc. do not fall off.

#Sliding the microscope on the surface of the table may damage or

tear off the rubber feet and/or scratch the table top surface.

Maintenance 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%).

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. Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the non-optical components of the microscope. To clean them, use a

lint-free, soft cloth lightly moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

3. Do not disassemble any part of the microscope as malfunction or damage may occur.

4. When not using the microscope, ensure that the frame is cooled down and store it in a locker or cover it with a dust

cover.

Turning On the Bulb (Fig. 3)

Using the field iris diaphragm ring @, adjust the diameter of the field

iris for objective power to the extent that it just circumscribes the field

of view. When the field iris diaphragm is stopped down to circumscribe

the field of view, it will exclude extraneous light and improve image

contrast within the field of view.

#When using the 100X objective, the field iris diaphragm image will

not be visible within the field of view. Accordingly, stop down the

diaphragm to its smallest diameter.

Field Iris Diaphragm (Fig. 4)

The dummy slider provided with the microscope frame can be used to

accommodate the optional transmitted light analyzer (U-ANT).

By preparing a transmitted light polarizer (U-POT) and polarizing light

condenser (CH3-CDP), simple polarized light observation becomes

possible.
