3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
The microscope is located in a styrofoam moulded packaging. After removing the adhesive tape from
all packaging, lift the top half of the packaging. Pay attention not to drop or damage the optical com-
ponents (objectives and eyepieces). Extract the microscope from its packaging with both hands (one
around the top arm and one around the base) and place it on a stable surface. Keep it away from
solvents, chemical vapors and excessive moisture. Avoid high temperature environments, the direct
sunshine and excessive vibrations, which could affect the performance of the instrument.
3.1 Operating environment
Temperature: : 10 - 36°C (50 – 96.8°F)
Relative humidity: 0 – 85% up to 30°C (86°F)
3.2 Unpacking microscope
Control the packaging to ensure that all material is present. We recommend that you take note of all
the accessories to facilitate any future orders of spare parts and technical support calls. Make sure
that in the packaging no small accessories or small parts remain. Please keep the original packaging
in a safe place for future transport needs of microscope or accessories.
Never touch the glass surfaces such as lenses or filters. Traces of grease or other residues can redu
-
ce the vision quality of the final image and corrode the surface of lenses in a short time.
3.3 Installing the microscope
Set the optical head on the top arm through the locking screw. Insert the eyepieces into the tubes and
lock them with the small screws which are located to the side of the tubes. Remove the protective film
from the stage of the microscope.
