Maintenance
1.
All the lenses have been thoroughly checked and adjusted - do not try and disassemble them yourself!
2.
The nosepiece and coarse/fine focus unit have a compact and precise frame. Please don’t disassemble
them.
3.
Keep the instrument clean by wiping dust regularly and avoid contaminating the optical elements.
4.
Contamination on the prism, like finger prints and smears, can be gently wiped with a piece of soft cloth or
gauze which has been immersed in pure alcohol or xylene*. *(note that the alcohol and the xylene are
flammable, avoid using near direct heat).
5.
Do not use an abrasive solvent to wipe the non-optical elements, use a soft detergent only.
6.
If the microscope is splashed by any form of liquid, turn off the power immediately, and wipe up the
moisture.
7.
Do not disassemble any part of the microscope. This will affect the function and the performance of the
microscope.
8.
Place the instrument in a cool, dry position. After using the microscope, remember to cover it with dust
cover. Wait for the lamp housing to cool completely before covering.
