1. Warning
This microscope is a scientic precision instrument designed to last for many years with a minimum of mainte-
nance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily use. We remind you that this
manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and that it must therefore be made accessi-
ble to the instrument users. We decline any responsibility deriving from incorrect instrument use uses that does
not comply with this manual.
2. Symbols and conventions
The following chart is an illustrated glossary of the symbols that are used in this manual.
CAUTION
This symbol indicates a potential risk and alerts you to proceed with caution.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
This symbol indicates a risk of electrical shock.
3. Safety Information
Avoiding Electrical Shock
Before plugging in the power supply, make sure that the supplying voltage of your region matches with the ope-
ration voltage of the equipment and that the lamp switch is in off position. Users should observe all safety regu-
lations of the region. The equipment has acquired the CE safety label. However, users have full responsibility to
use this equipment safely. Please follow the guidelines below, and read this manual in its entirety to ensure safe
operation of the unit.
4. Intended use
Standard models
For research and teaching use only. Not intended for any animal or human therapeutic or diagnostic use.
IVD Models
Also for diagnostic use, aimed at obtaining information on the physiological or pathological situation of the
subject.

6. Unpacking
The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the edge of the container
and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the optical items (objectives and eyepieces)
fall out and get damaged. Using both hands (one around the arm and one around the base), lift the microscope
from the container and put it on a stable desk.

7.4 Installation procedure
7.4.1 Installing the objectives
1. Turn the coarse focusing knob ① until the nose-
piece reaches its lowest position.
• For a safe transport, the nosepiece is placed
in the lowest position and the tension adjust-
ment collar ②is adjusted to the appropriate
tension when the microscope leaves the fac-
tory. (Fig.1)
2. Screw the lowest magnication objective on the
nosepiece from the right side, then turn the no-
sepiece clockwise. Mount the other objectives in
the same way, following the sequence from low
to high.
• Note: the objectives can also be installed
through the stage opening. (Fig. 2)
• Clean the objectives regularly. In inverted micro-
scopes, the objectives are very sensitive to dust.
• To prevent dust and contamination from entering
the microscope, cover all the unused holes with
dust caps ③. (Fig. 3)
• When operating, use the low power objective
(10X) to search and focus the specimen, then
switch to higher magnications.
• When switching between objectives, slowly turn
the nosepiece until it clicks. The click means that
the objective is in the right position, in the center
of the light path.

7.4.2 Installing stage extension or mechanical stage
• Stage extension and mechanical stage are
optional accessories for all the models.
Stage extension can be installed on either side of the
stage to enlarge the working surface.
Mechanical stage can only be installed on the right
side of the stage.
1. Installing the units: screw the bolts in the xing
holes of the attachments, then mount the unit
from below the stage. (Fig. 4)
