IMPORTANT

The SZ2 series of stereo microscopes are provided with ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) protection specifications. They are

provided with electroconductive coating in their external finish to reduce the surface resistance and grounding lead wires in

their standard base or frame to eliminate static electricity from them.

CAUTION To maintain the ESD protection performance, always use the microscope in combination with the

modules described in this manual or options having the ESD protection specifications. Otherwise,

the grounding will not work properly.

· The eye shades of the eyepieces are not provided with the ESD protection performance. Be sure to

remove them.

· The SZ2-SPBW stage plate is provided with the ESD protection performance only in the black surface.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. After the equipment has been used in an observation of a specimen that

is accompanied with a potential of infection, clean the parts coming in

contact with the specimen to prevent infection.

· Moving this microscope is accompanied with the risk of dropping

the specimen. Be sure to remove the specimen before moving

this product.

1. A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.

2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations.

(For the operating conditions, see “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 12.)

3. Be careful not to leave stains and fingerprints on the lens surfaces.

Contamination of the lens and mirror deteriorates the view of images.

4. Do not turn the left and right zoom adjustment knobs in the opposite directions, as this will result in a failure.

5. The rubber parts of the eyepiece sleeves are fragile and should be handled carefully. If they are damaged, dirt will

penetrate inside the microscope.

1Getting Ready

Fig. 1

· Hold the bottom of the stand with one hand while holding base column with the other hand to avoid tilting the

microscope.

· In case the specimen is damaged by erroneous operation, promptly take the infection prevention measures.

2. When the optional 0.5X auxiliary objective @ is used, the microscope become unstable due to the use of the SZ2-ET

auxiliary sleeve ². Be careful not to topple down the microscope. (Fig. 1)

In addition, when a TV camera is mounted on the SZ61TR, special care is required because the microscope becomes

more unstable.

SZ2 series

If the microscope is used in a manner not specified by this manual, the safety of the user may be imperiled. In addition,

the equipment may also be damaged. Always use the equipment as outlined in this instruction manual.

: Indicates that failure to follow the instructions in the warning could result in bodily harm to the

user and/or damage to equipment (including objects in the vicinity of the equipment).

# : Indicates that failure to follow the instructions could result in damage to equipment.

} : Indicates commentary (for ease of operation and maintenance).

2Maintenance and Storage

3Caution

1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower and wipe

gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).

If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze slightly moistened with commercially available absolute

alcohol.

Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully.

Be sure to keep it away from open flames or potential sources of electrical sparks –– for example, electrical

equipment that is being switched on or off.

Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.

2. 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.

3. Do not disassemble any part of the microscope as this could result in malfunction or reduced performance.

4. When disposing of the microscope. Check the regulations and rules of your local government and be sure to observe

them.

4Intended use

This instrument has been designed to be used to observe magnified images of specimens in routine and research

applications.

Do not use this instrument for any purpose other than its intended use.

1. Confirm the mounting, particularly that of the microscope body. (P. 14 - 16)

2. Confirm that the eyepieces are positioned correctly with respect to the standard base. (P. 15)

3. Adjust the rotation tension of the focus adjustment knob. (P. 6)

4. Prepare the light source as required.

SUMMARY OF OBSERVATION PROCEDURE

2-1 Preparation

2-2 Observation Procedure

1. Place the specimen on the stage plate. (Page 6)

2. Adjust the interpupillary distance. (Page 6)

3. Adjust the eyepiece diopter. (Pages 6 & 7)

(Note) This operation is not possible with the eyepieces without

helicoids (WHSZ10X/20X).

The operation is slightly difference when a micrometer is mounted in

one of the eyepieces with helicoids.

4. Set the zoom adjustment knob @ for the lowest magnification and rotate

the focus adjustment knob ² to bring the specimen into approximate

focus.

5. Rotate the zoom adjustment knob @ to the target magnification and

rotate the focus adjustment knob ² to bring the specimen into accurate

focus.

OPERATION

3-1 Base

1Using the Stage Plate

When reflected light illumination is used, the stage plate can be placed

either the white or black surface facing up depending on which side

makes the specimen easier to view.

#To maintain the ESD performance, use the black surface of the SZ2-

SPBW stage plate.

#When transmitted light illumination is used, use the optional SP-C

transparent glass stage plate.

}This operation is intended to facilitate the rotation of the knobs while

preventing spontaneous drop of the microscope body. It is recommended

to set the knob tension to a slightly higher level than the point where

spontaneous drop occurs.

· Hold the left and right focus adjustment knobs @ with both hands, fix the

left knob and rotate the right knob. The rotation tension of the knobs

increases or decreases according to the direction in which the right knob

is rotated.

1Adjusting the Interpupillary Distance (Fig. 3)

While holding the left and right eyepiece sleeves @ with both hands,

look through the eyepieces and adjust for binocular vision until the left

and right fields of view coincide completely.

}The adjustment operation is variable whether the eyepieces use an eye-

piece micrometer disks or not.

Eyepieces without eyepiece micrometer disk

1. Turn the diopter adjustment rings ² of the left and right eyepieces to

positions “0”.

2. Place an easy-to-observe specimen on the stage plate.

3. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate

the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.

4. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the highest magnification and ro-

tate the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.

5. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate

the diopter adjustment rings ² of the left and right eyepieces, instead of

the focus adjustment knob, to bring the specimen into focus.

Eyepieces with eyepiece micrometer disk

1. Look through the eyepiece with eyepiece micrometer disk and rotate its

diopter adjustment rings ² to bring the micrometer scale into focus.

2. Place an easy-to-observe specimen on the stage plate.

3. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for low magnification, look through the

eyepiece with eyepiece micrometer disk and rotate the focus adjustment

knob | to bring the specimen into focus.

4. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the highest magnification and

rotate the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.

5. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate

the diopter adjustment ring ƒ of the eyepiece without eyepiece micrometer

disk, instead of the focus adjustment knob |, to bring the specimen into

focus.

}Note the left and right diopter scale values so that it can be quickly

duplicated in future observations.

Diopter scale of the 10X eyepieces

}The valid range of the diopter scale is between –8 and +5 but a slight

margin is added to it. Therefore, the diopter value may exceed +5 or –8

when it is adjusted to the maximum. In this case, whether the diopter

value is over +8 or under –5 can be identified by the length of the

eyepiece.

Fig. 5

3(Fig. 6)

}The magnification can be limited in the desired range by setting each

stopper on the microscope body (also used as the magnification indices)

and the stopper ring on each zoom adjustment knob. The right zoom

adjustment knob is used to limit the higher end of the magnification, and

the left knob is used to limit the lower end.

1. Using an Allen wrench, loosen the clamping screw of the right stopper

ring @ and free it. (Also free the left knob in this way.)

2. Rotate the right zoom adjustment knob ² to align the desired higher-limit

magnification with the index (stopper) ³.

3. Gently apply the stopper ring @ to the stopper ³ and tighten the clamping

screw using the Allen wrench to retain this condition.

4. Set the left zoom adjustment knob according to the desired lower-limit

magnification by rotating the left knob and clamping the left stopper ring

in the same way as above.
