Preventative Maintenance
1.
Cleaning frame and stage
Disconnect the plug from main socket before cleaning. Clean the frame
and stage with a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution. Be
sure the instrument is dry before using.
2.
Cleaning optical parts
Microscope eyepieces and objectives are coated.
They should not be wiped while dry as dirt or dust may scratch the
coating. It is best to remove parts from the frame prior to cleaning.
Always blow loose dust away first. Use cotton swabs or lens tissue
moistened with a lens cleaner or a small amount of alcohol, then wipe the
surface clean with a good quality lens tissue. Solvents such as Xylene
should NOT be used as cleaner.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OBJECTIVE LENSES.
