2.1 Installation Site
The microscope should be operated in a room with as little dust and debris as practically
possible. Keep your instrument away from solvents, chemical fumes and excessive
humidity. Also try to avoid big swings in ambient temperature, direct sunlight and
vibration as they can affect measurements and instrument performance.

Temperature:
10 - 36
°
C (50 – 96.8

2.2 Unpacking
Please check your packing slip to insure that all materials are present. Keep a copy for
your records so that you have the proper information when ordering more equipment,
ordering replacement parts or accessories or when calling for technical support. Please
make sure that no small pieces or parts are left in the packing material. Keep the packing
materials in a safe place for the purpose of storage and transporting the microscope and
its accessories.
Avoid touching the surface of optical components such as lenses,
filters and glass surfaces. Even very small traces of perspiration or finger oils can corrode
the surfaces of optics in a short period of time.
