Instructions for Use
Operation
1. Turn on the power using the On/Off switch located
on the front of the Power Supply Assembly.
Brightness can be adjusted by rotating the
Illumination Level Control Knob.
Refer to Figure SU-14.
Note:
The maximum intensity setting is for
intermittent use only. Continuous use will
shorten the lamp life.
2. Insert the Focusing Rod in the pivot post of the
instrument body to make rough PD and focus
adjustments. Refer to Figure IN-1.
3. Position the light onto the flat surface of the
Focusing Rod and adjust the pupillary distance
and focus of the eyepieces to suit the needs of the
operator.
4. Using the Slit Width Knobs, adjust the projected
slit so that the thinnest slit is shown on the
Focusing Rod. Refer to Figure IN-2.
Note:
The thinnest slit will allow for greater accuracy.
5. Remove the Focusing Rod.
6. To position a patient, adjust the chinrest height
by turning the Chinrest Elevation Handle on the
post of the Chin Rest Assembly until the patient’s
canthus is in line with the Canthus Mark on the
chin rest post. Refer to Figures IN-2 and IN-3.
7. Microscope elevation is adjusted by rotating the
joystick and observing the slit image through the
Microscope Assembly until the slit is centered on
the patient's cornea. Refer to Figure IN-4.
8. Move the slit lamp with the joystick held firmly
and slightly angled toward the patient, until the slit
appears sharply on the cornea.
Note:
The accuracy of this rough adjustment should
be checked by the naked eye. The fine
adjustment is performed while observing the
slit through the microscope.
9. Tilt the joystick, which is now held lightly at its
upper end, until the slit appears sharply at the
depth of the eye which is to be observed.
10.
The horizontal motion of the base can be locked
by tightening the base locking screw. Refer to
Figure IN-4.
Note:
Lock the base whenever the lamp is not in use.
