Correct assembly and adjustments are indispensable for the microscope to manifest its full performance. If you

want to assemble the microscope by yourself, see chapter 10, “ASSEMBLY” (pages 21 to 24) first. For the modules

for which separate instruction manuals are provided, also refer to the assembly description in their manuals.

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: Approx. 10 kg)

2. When transporting the microscope, always hold the observation tube

support @ and the stage handle ² using both hands. (Fig. 1)

#If the microscope is dropped under this condition, the focusing

mechanism may be damaged. To prevent this, insert the provided

protection pad ³ below the revolving nosepiece and fix the pad

using the coarse adjustment knob. (Fig. 2)

3. The surface of the lamp socket | on the illumination unit can get ex-

tremely hot. Make sure you leave a space of 10 cm or more around the

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

4. When installing the microscope, route the power cord and lamp cord 5

away from the lamp socket | and illumination unit 6. Otherwise, the

power cord and lamp cord coverings may melt.

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

make sure that the main switch 7is set to “ ” (OFF), the power cord is

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

lamp socket | have cooled sufficiently. (Fig. 2)

Applicable bulb

Halogen bulb:

6V30WHAL-L (Hosobuchi G4 20H CF-6) or

6V30WHAL (Phillips 5761)

Halogen bulb, 6V 30WHAL (Philips 5761)

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

provided, please select the power cord by referring to the section “PROPER

SELECTION OF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD” at the end of this instruc-

tion manual. If the proper power cord is not used, Olympus can no longer

warrant the electrical safety performance of the equipment.

7. Always ensure that the grounding terminal is properly grounded. If the

equipment is not grounded, Olympus can no longer warrant the electri-

cal safety performance of the equipment.

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

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

For details, see Inspection Sheet on page 27.

[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 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” on page 19.)

Avoid use in the following conditions.

1) Close to the air inlet or ventilator of an air conditioning unit.

2) Locations with strong vibrations and severe temperature fluctuations.

3) Close to equipment that generates excessive noise (including non-Olympus products).

4) Places exposed to direct sunlight.

5) Dusty places with high temperature and humidity.

6) Near flammable substances such as gasoline, thinner and alcohol.

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. Many parts of the exterior are made of plastic. Wipe the microscope 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. If no objectives are mounted, be sure to cover the objective mounting threaded holes on the revolving nosepiece to

prevent duet and dirt from getting on the lenses inside.

4. Never disassemble any part of the microscope. Doing so could cause malfunctions or reduced performance.

5. When not using the microscope, set the main switch to “ ” (OFF), wait until the lamp socket has cooled down, and keep

the microscope covered with a dust cover.

6. When disposing of the microscope, check the regulations and rules of your local government and be sure to observe

them.

3 Caution

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

microscope may also be damaged. Always use the microscope 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).

3. Always use the coarse tension adjustment ring to adjust the tension of the coarse adjustment knob.

1Turning on the Light Source (Fig. 3)

Set the main switch @ on the side panel of the microscope frame to “ I”

(ON).

Fig. 4

2Adjusting the Brightness Control Knob (Fig. 4)

Fig. 5

Turn the brightness control knob @ clockwise to raise the voltage and

increase the light intensity. Turn it counterclockwise to lower the voltage

and decrease the light intensity.

}The service life of the bulb can be extended by using the bulb at a lower

voltage.

#Always turn the knob gently and do note attempt to turn it past the

stop positions.

3Adjusting the Tension of the Coarse

Adjustment Knob (Fig. 5)

#Be sure to use the coarse tension adjustment ring @ to adjust the

tension of the control adjustment knob.

How to adjust the tension

Turn the coarse tension adjustment ring @ with your fingers or using a

flat-head screwdriver. Turning the ring in the direction of the arrow in-

creases the tension of the coarse adjustment knob, and turning the ring

in the opposite direction decreases the tension.

If the revolving nosepiece descends on its own or if the specimen gets

out of focus quickly even when brought into the focus using the fine

adjustment knob, it means that the tension of coarse adjustment knob is

too low. Turn the ring in the direction of the arrow to increase the tension.
