This microscope is a scientific precision instrument designed to last for many years with a minimum of main
-
tenance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily classroom and laboratory
use.
Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and that it
must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users.
Optika declines any responsibility deriving from instrument uses that do not comply with this manual.
3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
3.1
The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the edge of
the container and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the optical items (ob
-
jectives and eyepieces) fall out and get damaged. Using both hands (one around the arm and one
around the base), lift the microscope from the container and put it on a stable desk.
3.2
The objectives are located in individual protective vials. Remove the objectives from the vials and
insert them into the microscope nosepiece in the order from the lowest magnification to the highest,
in a clockwise direction from the rear.
3.3
Epifluorescence parts (epiilluminator with filters block, power supply and mercury lamp housing) are
housed in an hard case. Remove the protection caps from the top of the main B-600 body and from
the epiilluminator and place the epiilluminator on the top of the microscope body. Tighten the screw
on the right side using the provided allen wrench.
3.4 Insert the mercury lamp house on the back of the epiilluminator and tighten the screw using the pro
-
vided allen wrench.
