BULB REPLACEMENT ON TRANSMITTED LIGHT
[1] Remove the socket block from the microscope base by unscrewing the two screws and pulling the
backing plate clear of the instrument.
[2] After making certain the old bulb is cool to the
touch, remove it by pulling straight out of its socket.
Do not twist as the lamp pins may break off and
become lodged in the socket.
[3] Handle the new bulb only with tissue paper or
the plastic in which it is wrapped and insert the two
pins into the two holes in the socket.
DO NOT HANDLE WITH BARE FINGERS - BULB MAY EXPLODE WHEN HEATED IF NOT
HANDLED CORRECTLY.
CARE
Always cover the instrument with plastic dust cover provided when the microscope is not in use.
Keep eyepieces in the microscope body at all times in order to prevent dust from falling on the internal
optics.
Store the microscope in a safe, clean place when not in use for an extended period of time.
CLEANING
Clean exposed lens surfaces carefully with a pressurized air source, soft brush or clean soft cloth. Too
much finger pressure may damage lens coatings.
To remove oil, fingerprints and grease smudges, use the cleaning cloth moistened with a very small
amount of alcohol or xylene.
Immersion oil should always be promptly cleaned from high power oil immersion objectives after every
use.
Painted or plastic surfaces should be cleaned only with a cloth moistened with water and a small
amount of detergent.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE INTERNAL OPTICS OR MECHANICS!!
If the microscope does not seem to be functioning properly or you have questions about its operation,
call your supplier (or/and authorized repair service) for advice.
