1
Cleaning the Lenses
•
Dust is best removed with a soft brush or gauze.
•
More persistent dirt, such as fingerprints, grease and oil, may be removed with soft cotton,
lens tissue, or gauze lightly moistened with absolute alcohol (ethyl alcohol or methyl
alcohol).
•
Do not use any solvents other than absolute alcohol as they may damage the lens adhesion
surfaces. Especially avoid petroleum benzine when cleaning parts such as filters or the
secondary objective.
•
Absolute alcohol is extremely flammable. Keep this flammable liquids away from fire or
sparks and when setting the power switch on and off.
•
Always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when using absolute alcohol.

Cleaning the Microscope
•
We recommend that you use a silicon cloth to clean the microscope.
•
For persistent dirt, dampen a piece of gauze with neutral detergent and wipe lightly.
•
Using organic solvent may result in discoloration of the plastic parts.
3
Disinfecting the Microscope
•
We recommend that you use 70% medical alcohol for normal disinfection of the microscope.
•
In case of spillage of a sample onto the microscope, determine whether the sample is
hazardous. If the sample is hazardous, follow the standard procedure of your laboratory.
•
Using organic solvent may result in discoloration of the plastic parts.
4
Storing the Microscope
•
When the microscope is not in use, cover it with the vinyl cover, and store it in a dry place
not subject to mold.
•
Before covering the microscope with the vinyl cover, turn off the microscope (press the
switch to the “O” position) and unplug the power cord, then wait for more than 30 minutes
until the lamp and its surrounding areas cool sufficiently.
•
We especially recommend that the objectives and eyepieces be kept in a container (such as
a desiccator) with desiccant in it.
