ASSEMBLY
Assemble the following parts and components in the order
of their numbers given as below.
Tools required/or assembly: One hexagonal screwdriver,
one hexagonal wrench, a pair of centering tools and one
screwdriver for cross-recessed head screws. The first three
are supplied with the microscope.
This microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with enough care.
Do not give it strong impacts. Do not operate it forcibly. They both may cause malfunction.
Where to Install
• Do not install the microscope in a bright environment where it is
exposed to direct sunlight or placed right beneath the room lamps.
If the surrounding environment is brighter than necessary, the
focused sample image may not be clearly visible.
• Install the microscope in a place free from dust or dirt.
• Install the microscope flat on a level surface.
• Install the microscope in the following environment where the
room temperature is in the range of O to 40
°
C and the relative
humidity is 85% or below.
High temperatures and high humidity may cause mold and dew to
be formed on the lenses. They may also degrade the performance
of the microscope or result in malfunction.

Lamphouse Adapter
*
When using 12V-100W Halogen Lamp as a
Light Sourse
(See pages 12, 13 as to when 12V-50W
halogen lamp is used as a light source or when
the metal halide light source is used.)
Insert the lamphouse adapter into the sleeve in
the back of the microscope. Three cross
recessed head screws are supplied with the
adapter.
Insert two of them into the two screw holes in
the upper part of the adapter. Tighten these two
screws with a screwdriver. (The two tightened
screws provide the adapter with enough strength
without the third screw tightened into the screw
hole in the lower part of the adapter.)

the metal halide light source is used.)
( CAUTIONS)
• Use 12V-100W halogen lamp (specified in
'Electrical Specifications' on page 72) and the
Nikon 12V-l OOW lamphouse 2 with pre
centered socket,
• Wait until the lamp and the lamphouse cool
down sufficiently before replacing the lamp.
• Tum off the power s-witch and unplug the
power connector before replacing the lamp.
This avoids electrical shocks or damage to the
microscope.
• Do not touch with bare hands the glass surface
of the lamp to be mounted. Dirt or fingerprints
on the surface may degrade the illuminating
capacity of the lamp. If fingerprints or dirt are
left on the surface, wipe them off and keep the
lamp always clean.
• Insert the 12V -lO0W lamphouse 2 firmly into
the microscope base before fixing this
lamphouse.
• Remove the filter holders before detaching the
12V-IO0W lamphouse 2.
