LED REPLACEMENT
The Swift M6000CL base is equipped with a 3.4 volt, .06 watt
illumination system. The LED for this illumination system has
approximately 50,000 hours of service. The time may vary depending
on use and intensity. To prolong the life of the LED, you should
always turn off the unit when not in use.
When purchasing a replacement LED, it is important that you use only
the Swift approved LED (Swift # MA2215). This LED has been tested
and approved for life span, color temperature and brightness.
To replace an LED, you must first make sure the microscope is
unplugged. Raise the stage to its highest point to attain clearance for
the removal of the illuminator housing. Use the 0.9mm allen wrench
(included with the microscope) to loosen the 2 set screws that secure
the black illuminator housing to the base of the microscope. Remove
the illuminator housing to expose the LED. Remove the LED by pulling
it straight up. To install the new LED, align the 2 metal socket pins
with the 2 holes at the bottom of the new LED and gently push the LED
onto the socket. Re-install the illuminator housing and tighten the set
screws to hold the housing in place.
