Thank you for your purchase of a Richter Optica microscope. The information in this manual is provided to answer most
questions that can arise when operating your microscope and to help you avoid unneccesary maintenance expenses in

UNPACKING
Do not discard styrofoam container or packing materials until you are sure shipment is complete and undamaged (retain
stryrofoam shipping container to store your microscope when it is not in use). Remove all tape and packing material used
to protect microscope during shipment. Make certain lens surfaces do not come in contact with dirt, fingerprints or oil.
Damage of lens surfaces occur when they come in contact with such contaminants, and image quality is reduced.
