Erecting and assembling
Setting up:
Three handles are screwed into the base plate, and are used to lift the
microscope stand. The tripod weighs approx. 55 kg (121 lb) and should
be lifted by 2 people. The desk on which the Univar is positioned must
be stable, since the microscope with all of its associated gear can
weigh up to 120 kg (264 lb).The countertop must be hard and flat, so
that an 8mm air gap on the underside of the large lamps houses is
ensured for proper air circulation.
Remove the protective transport pieces. The necessary hex wrench to
unscrew the pieces is included.
a) Remove the red plate covering the projection prism by unscrewing
the two allen screws.
b) Remove the red protector in the relay housing.
c) Remove the red locking screw for the beamsplitter prism and
replace with the supplied 32mm long screw.
d) Remove the red protector on the focus rack, after unscrewing the
hex bolt and the slotted screw. Withdraw the protector after the rack is
slightly raised. Replace the slotted screw.
e) Do not move the coarse feed before the assembly of the stage
support.
