SECTION 5 – OPERATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
5-1. UNPACKING
All stereo microscope components have been packaged carefully so that you can receive
them in perfect condition. We recommend that you keep the packaging material. It may be
required again should you have to send in the microscope or wish to store it for a longer
period, or whenever the mircoscope needs to be transported to a technical customer service
center for maintenance or repair.
Packaging includes:
•
SMZ-140 (binoculars): A base with a tripod column to add a movable, lighted upper
component. A binocular top section with eyepieces, eyepiece covers and a
protective cover for the microscope
Please remove and handle all microscope components very carefully.
Avoid touching the lenses and optical elements. Also avoid contact with dust, water and
other dirt-causing substances, as they can smudge or damage the lens surface and affect
image quality.
5-2. ASSEMBLY AND START-UP
Please perform all work stages involved in assembling the stereo microscope very
carefully. The stereo microscope’s individual parts and elements should not be
assembled too forcefully.
•
Place the base of the microscope (9) upright on a flat, clean and secure surface
•
Move
the
attachment support
(17) over the tripod rod (19) and screw it on tightly.
•
Mount the adjusting ring (18) under the attachment support
•
Move the face protector (25) over the microscope head
•
Place the microscope head (10) into the head support
and screw it on from both sides
•
Screw on the ancillary lens
(objective) (6)
•
Screw the shutter (7) on to the ancillary lens and secure it into the correct position using
the bolt
(23)
•
Plug the light plug (12) into the socket on the top side of the tripod
•
Connect the control line (20) to shutter with the welding device
•
Assemble the welding table (8) and mount it on the tripod base (Fig. 2)
•
Connect the connective lamp cable to the transformer
•
Insert the mains plug into a suitable electrical outlet.
WARNING: Before connecting the stereo microscope to the electricity supply,
check that the electricity supply voltage is compatible with the voltage labelled on
the stereo microscope.
•
During a self-test immediately after switching on the welding device, the shutter
(7)
will
quickly turn dark and then light again. Run this test each time prior to beginning your
work, to ensure that the view protection filter functions perfectly. If needed, start the self-
test again by turning the welding device off and then on again.
WARNING: Keep a minimum 50 mm distance between the light and the workpiece
and/or the welding table.
ATTENTION!
Before welding, always check that the protective filter (shutter)
functions properly.
