Caution
1.
Find the “UP” sign and place the Styrofoam container on your table or bench so
that the arrow is pointing upward. Open the shipping carton carefully to prevent
any accessory items (i.e. objectives or eyepieces) from dropping and being
damaged.
2. Do not discard the molded Styrofoam container. The container should be retained
should the microscope ever requires reshipment.
3. Keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, and dusty
environments. Ensure that the microscope is located on a smooth, level and firm
surface.
4. If any specimen solutions or other liquids splash onto the stage, objective or any
other component, disconnect the power cord immediately and wipe up the
spillage. Otherwise, the instrument may be damaged.
5. All electrical connectors (power cord) should be inserted into an electrical surge
suppressor to prevent damage due to voltage fluctuations.
6.
Important:
the lamp, lamphouse and adjacent parts will become very hot during
or short after operation. Do not touch these parts until they have completely
cooled. Never attempt to handle a hot halogen bulb or mercury bulb.
7. Make sure there is sufficient room around the microscope base for heat
elimination.
8. For safety when replacing the lamps or fuses, be sure the main switch is off,
unplug the power cord, and only replace the bulb after the bulb and the
lamphouse has completely cooled.
9. Do not touch the surface of halogen bulbs with bare fingers. If so, clean the
surface with soft cloth.
10.
Important:
confirm that the input voltage
(220V version available, contact seller)
indicated on your microscope corresponds to your line voltage. The use of a
different input voltage other than that as indicated will cause severe damage to the
microscope.
