Maintenance and Care
1.
All the lenses have been adjusted properly; do not dismount them by yourself please.
2.
The nosepiece and coarse and fine focusing parts are so delicate that it is forbidden to
disassemble them carelessly by yourself.
3.
Keep the instrument clean ,and do not pollute the optical element when wiping away the dust
on the instrument.
4.
The contaminations on the prism, like fingerprints and oil smudges, could be gently wiped
with a piece of soft cloth or tissue paper, gauze which has been immersed in pure alcohol or
ether.
(Note that the alcohol and ether are highly flammable, do keep them away from
the fire or potential sources of electrical sparks, and use them in a drafty room as
possible as you can.)
5.
Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the microscope components other than the
glass components. To clean them, use a lint-free, soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted
neutral detergent.
6.
When using, if the microscope is splashed by liquid, cut off the power at once, and wipe away
the splash.
7.
Do not disassemble any parts of the microscope, as this will affect the function or reduce the
performance of the microscope.
8.
Place the instrument in a cool, dry position. After using the microscope, remember to cover it
