The customer has the choice to either set up or mount the Axio Scope.A1 himself before putting it into
operation, or have the Zeiss Customer Service do so for a fee.
Please read the Safety Guidelines carefully before assembling and operating the microscope.
The assembly activities described in the following chapters are mainly based on the assembly of a
microscope stand with an upper stand part and a lower stand part. The same activities apply when
assembling a microscope stand with an upper stand part and the stand column Vario – special activities
for the stand column Vario are described separately.
