SAFETY NOTES

1. Open the shipping carton carefully to prevent any accessory, i.e. objectives or eyepieces, from

dropping and being damaged.

2. Do not discard the molded foam container; the container should be retained should the microscope

ever require reshipment.

3. Keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, and dusty environments.

Ensure the microscope is located on a smooth, level and firm surface.

4. If any specimen solutions or other liquids splash onto the stage, objective or any other component,

disconnect the power cord immediately and wipe up the spillage. Otherwise, the instrument may be

damaged.

5. All electrical connectors (power cord) should be inserted into an electrical surge suppressor to

prevent damage due to voltage fluctuations.

6. For safety when replacing the LED bulb or fuse, be sure the main switch is off (“O”), remove the

power cord, and replace the LED bulb after the bulb and the lamp house has completely cooled.

7. Confirm that the input voltage indicated on your microscope corresponds to your line voltage. The

use of a different input voltage other than indicated will cause severe damage to the microscope.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

1. Do not attempt to disassemble any component including eyepieces, objectives or focusing assembly.

2. Keep the instrument clean; remove dirt and debris regularly. Accumulated dirt on metal surfaces

should be cleaned with a damp cloth. More persistent dirt should be removed using a mild soap

solution. Do not use organic solvents for cleansing.

3. The outer surface of the optics should be inspected and cleaned periodically using an air stream from

an air bulb. If dirt remains on the optical surface, use a soft cloth or cotton swab dampened with a

lens cleaning solution (available at camera stores). All optical lenses should be swabbed using a

circular motion. A small amount of absorbent cotton wound on the end of a tapered stick such as

cotton swabs or Q-tips, makes a useful tool for cleaning recessed optical surfaces. Avoid using an

excessive amount of solvents as this may cause problems with optical coatings or cemented optics

or the flowing solvent may pick up grease making cleaning more difficult. Oil immersion objectives

should be cleaned immediately after use by removing the oil with lens tissue or a clean, soft cloth.

4. Store the instrument in a cool, dry environment. Cover the microscope with the dust cover when not

in use.

5. ACCU-SCOPE® microscopes are precision instruments which require periodic preventative

maintenance to maintain proper performance and to compensate for normal wear. An annual

schedule of preventative maintenance by qualified personnel is highly recommended. Your

authorized ACCU-SCOPE ® distributor can arrange for this service.

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on the purchase of your new ACCU-SCOPE ® microscope. ACCU-SCOPE ®

microscopes are engineered and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Your microscope will

last a lifetime if used and maintained properly. ACCU-SCOPE ® microscopes are carefully assembled,

inspected and tested by our staff of trained technicians in our New York facility. Careful quality control

procedures ensure each microscope is of the highest quality prior to shipment.

UNPACKING AND COMPONENTS

Your microscope arrived packed in a molded EPE foam container. Do not discard the container: the

EPE foam container should be retained for reshipment of your microscope if needed. Avoid placing the

microscope in dusty surroundings or in high temperature or humid areas as mold and mildew will form.

Carefully remove the microscope from the container by its arm and base and place the microscope on a

flat, vibration-free surface.

DETAILED ASSEMBLY

Installing the Condenser

& Stage Carrier - (Fig. 1 & 2)

Using the 3mm Hex wrench that was provided with your

microscope, loosen the lock screw ①.

Gently slide the dovetail of the condenser/stage carrier onto

the dovetail slide mount ② as shown until it sits firmly on the

resting bolt ③.

Retighten the lock screw with the Hex wrench.

Installing the Condenser - (Fig. 2 & 3)

Lower the condenser/stage carrier ①to its lowest position by

turning the condenser knob counter clockwise ②.

Loosen the condenser lock screw with the Hex wrench③.

Position the condenser ④ with the centering pin facing

toward the back of the dovetail slider. Slide the condenser

into place and wiggle it to ensure the positioning pin is

engaged.

Gently retighten the lock screw ③.

Installing the Stage - (Fig. 4 & 5)

With the condenser/stage carrier at its lowest position, remove

protective tape and bag from stage and specimen holder ①.

(The stage comes with the specimen holder pre-mounted to

the top of the stage).

Using the 3mm Hex wrench, loosen the lock screw ② on the

front of the stage.

Position the X-Y movement knobs to the right ③. Align the

circular mount on the bottom of the stage with the circular

bracket on the condenser/stage carrier and set the stage in

place so that it is centered over the condenser below.

Retighten the lock screw ②on the front of the stage.

magnification to the highest in a clockwise direction

beginning with the first empty objective receptacle in front.

Install each objective by using two hands to position and

gently screw in the objective in a clockwise direction into the

threads of the nosepiece receptacle.

NOTE: Never force any objectives onto the threads of the

nosepiece, and do not over-tighten.

Installing the LED Lamp Housing - (Fig. 11)

Using the Hex wrench loosen the lock screw ①for the LED

lamp housing.

Align and install the lamp housing ② with the opening ③in

the back of the stand as shown.

Retighten the lock screw ①.

Align the red dot on the LED lamp housing cable plug ④ with

the red dot on the top of the lamp housing port ⑤ on the back

of the microscope and slide the plug into the port for

transmitted illumination ( ).

Installing the Power Cord - (Fig. 12)

Align and plug the female end ① of the power cord into the

power cord socket② on the back of the microscope.

Plug the other end into a grounded (3-prong) outlet.

NOTE: Always use the power cord that is provided with your

microscope; using a different power cord may damage your

microscope. Should you need a replacement, contact your

authorized ACCU-SCOPE dealer or call ACCU-SCOPE
