OPMI Lumera i Preparation for use
Balancing the system
Do not perform balance setting until the surgical microscope and all accessories
have been mounted!
• Move the suspension arm (3) into its horizontal position and tightly hold
it with one hand.
• Loosen knob (2) for adjusting the friction of the suspension arm’s upward/
downward movement.
• Move suspension arm (3) slightly up and down. At the same time, turn
adjustment screw (1) until you think that the spring force is sufficient to
compensate for the weight of the surgical microscope and accessories.
Turn clockwise to increase the spring force, turn counterclockwise to
reduce it.
• Continue to perform this adjustment until the surgical microscope moves
neither upward nor downward. The surgical microscope is fully balanced
when it remains stationary in all positions within the work area.

are performing the balancing procedure or moving the suspension arm.
