9. OPERATION SAFETY MEASURES

Before connecting the power, ensure the local power supply voltage is the same as the
microscope’s specified voltage.

Before connecting the power, be sure the main power switch is turned off.

Rotate the illumination adjustment dial at the side of the microscope to the off position before
turning the microscope power on and off. If not done, the life of the bulb will be shorten and
damage the electrical components. The microscope comes with the desired regional power supply
as selected by the distributor. Users should not change this setting without permission from the
manufacturer.

Users should adhere to local operation safety regulations. The user must bear full responsibility for
the safe use of this instrument.
10. MICROSCOPE MAINTENANCE AND CARE
In order to properly care for the microscope and avoid corrosion, it should be kept away from dust,
water, water vapor and corrosive materials. If dust or water works their way into the microscope, it may
result in mildew growth damaging the instrument. Please be aware that once mildew contaminates the
microscope, even after it has been thoroughly cleaned, it will easily become contaminated again.
Oil and fingerprint stains will affect image quality. Hands and oily materials should be kept away from
the outer surfaces of the optical components.
10.1 Prevention against dust
When not in use, the instrument should be covered with the dust cover that comes with your
microscope. Do not, under any circumstances, leave the eyepiece tubes exposed. Eyepieces should be
kept in the observation tubes (when frequently using the microscope), and packing paper or lens caps
should be placed over the eyepieces. If the eyepieces and other optical components are not to be used
for an extended period of time, they should be placed in a dry cardboard box with the addition of a
desiccating agent in order to prevent dust and moisture collection.
