SERVICE
ACCU-SCOPE
®
microscopes are precision instruments which require periodic servicing to keep
them performing properly and to compensate for normal wear. A regular schedule of preventative
maintenance by qualified personnel is highly recommended. Your authorized ACCU-SCOPE
®
distributor can arrange for this service. Should unexpected problems be experienced with your
instrument, proceed as follows:
1. Contact the ACCU-SCOPE
®
distributor from whom you purchased the microscope. Some
problems can be resolved simply over the telephone.
2. If it is determined that the microscope should be returned to your ACCU-SCOPE
®
distributor or
to ACCU-SCOPE
®
for warranty repair, pack the instrument in its original Styrofoam shipping
carton. If you no longer have this carton, pack the microscope in a crush-resistant carton with a
minimum of three inches of a shock absorbing material surrounding it to prevent in-transit damage.
The microscope should be wrapped in a plastic bag to prevent Styrofoam dust from damaging the
microscope. Always ship the microscope in an upright position;
NEVER SHIP A MICROSCOPE
ON ITS SIDE
. The microscope or component should be shipped prepaid and insured.
