1.4 Maintenance and cleaning
In any case, the device must be kept clean and regularly cleaned of dust.
Before wiping down the unit when wet, make sure that the power is turned off.
Glass components should preferably be wiped lightly with a lint-free cloth when
contaminated.
To wipe off oil stains or fingerprints from lens surfaces, the lint-free cloth is moistened
with a mixture of ether and alcohol (ratio 70 / 30) and then used for cleaning.
Ether and alcohol must always be handled with care as they are highly flammable
substances. Therefore, it is essential to keep them away from open flames and
electrical appliances, which are switched on and off, and use only in well-ventilated
rooms.
However, organic solutions of this type should not be used to clean other components
of the device. This could result in changes to the paintwork. It is sufficient to use a
neutral cleaning agent for this purpose.
Other cleaning agents for the optical components include:
•
Special cleaner for optical lenses
•
Special optical cleaning cloths
•
Bellows
• Brush
With proper handling and regular inspection, the microscope will operate smoothly for
many years.
However, if a repair is necessary, contact your KERN dealer or our Technical Service.
