INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your new UNITRON
®
microscope. UNITRON
®
microscopes are
engineered and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Your microscope will last a lifetime if
used and maintained properly. UNITRON
®
microscopes are carefully assembled, inspected and tested
by our staff of trained technicians in our New York facility. Careful quality control procedures ensure each
microscope is of the highest quality prior to shipment.
UNPACKING THE COMPONENTS
Your microscope arrived packed in a molded shipping carton.
Do not discard the carton
:
the shipping
carton should be retained for reshipment of your microscope if needed. Avoid placing the microscope in
dusty surroundings or in high temperature or humid areas as mold and mildew can form.
The components of the 12100 Polarizing Microscope are shipped “double-boxed” -- inside the inner
cartons the microscope and its components are further protected by foam forms.
IMPORTANT:
When lifting and moving the microscope, hold it by one of the microscope
frame’s curved
vertical arms
with one hand and place your other hand under the base
of the frame.
NEVER
hold
the stage, focus knobs or eyepiece tubes when lifting or moving the microscope.
