BULB REPLACEMENT
When changing light bulbs in the illuminators, always disconnect the plug from the electrical source.
Never work on the electrical system without first disconnecting.
When a bulb replacement is necessary in the Incident Illuminator, remove the lamp cover by turning it
counterclockwise and remove the old bulb by twisting it 1/3 turn counterclockwise by pushing it toward
the socket so that the bulb will be sprung out from its socket.
To replace the bulb of the Transmitted Illuminator, lay the instrument carefully over on its side and
remove the four set screws in the bottom cover of the base. Replace the old bulb in the same way as
above.
The bulbs used for the Incident and Transmitted Illuminators of PB/ABZ stand are different. The bulb
for the Incident Illuminator employs a flat filament facing to the head of the bulb and Catalog Number is
MA560 and the bulb for the Transmitted Illuminator employs a flat filament facing to the side of the
lamp and the Catalog Number is MA561. The bulbs used for the Incident and Transmitted Illuminators
of PBH/ABZH/ABEstand are same halogen. Catalog number is MA570.
CARE
Always cover the instrument with the plastic dust cover provided when the microscope is not in use.
Keep the 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, moisten the cleaning cloth with a very small amount of
alcohol or xylene.
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 an authorized repair service) for advice.
