This symbol indicates a risk of electrical shock.

Safety Information

Avoiding Electrical Shock

Before plugging in the power supply, make sure that the supplying voltage of your region matches with the op-

eration voltage of the equipment and that the lamp switch is in off position.

Users should observe all safety regulations of the region. The equipment has acquired the CE safety label.

However, users have full responsibility to use this equipment safely.

Please follow the guidelines below, and read this manual in its entirety to ensure safe operation of the unit.

Unpacking

The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the edge of the container

and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the optical items (objectives and eyepieces)

fall out and get damaged. Using both hands (one around the arm and one around the base), lift the microscope

from the container and put it on a stable desk.

Place the observation head onto the top of the arm and tighten the lock-screw. Insert the eyepieces into the eye

tubes and x them with the tiny screws on the side of the eye tubes. Remove the plastic protection lm from the

microscope stage.

Using the microscope

Adjust the observation head

Loosen the lock-screw, turn the observation head to a comfortable position for observation, and then lock the

lock-screw.

Place the specimen on the stage

Lock the specimen slide on the mechanical stage using the slide clamp. Ensure that the specimen is centred

over the stage opening by adjusting the coaxial knobs of the stage

LED lamp settings – Transmitted illumination

The microscope is tted with high brightness white LED illuminator. Press the selector switch on the back of the

main body to I position. Turn the brightness adjustment knob to a brightness suitable for observation.

LED lamp settings – Epillumination

The microscope is tted with high brightness LED illuminator. Press the selector switch on the back of the main

body to II position. Turn the brightness adjustment knob to a brightness suitable for observation.

Adjust interpupillary distance

Hold the right and left parts of the observation head by both hands and adjust the interpupillary distance by turn-

ing the two parts until one circle of light can be seen.

Focus and diopter adjustment

Turn the dioptric adjustment ring on the left eyepiece to the zero position. Turn the coarse focus knob in order

to focus the slide with an objective with low magnication. Adjust the ne focus knob until you obtain a clear and

dened picture observing with the right eye, and then act on the left dioptric compensation ring observing with

the left eye. When the image appears in focus, choose the necessary objective with the revolving nosepiece.

Turn the tension-adjust-knob to get a suitable tension for the focus system.

Condenser adjustment

Turn the condenser adjustment knob to move the condenser up or down for a clear and uniform sample illumina-

tion. The two condenser centring screws can be used to centre the condenser.

Set the numerical aperture

Adjust the aperture of the iris diaphragm to set the numerical aperture of the illuminator, thus controlling image

contrast and resolution.

Using the uorescence

Assembling the epi-uorescence attachment

Take the attachment out of its packaging and put it onto the microscope stand, then tighten the attachment lock-

ing screw.

Place the optical head onto the top of the attachment and tighten the optical head locking screw. Connect the

cable from the epi-uorescence attachment to the output jack on the rear of the microscope.

Lighting up the uorescence LED light

Connect the external 6Vdc power supply to a wall socket, and plug its output to the jack on the rear of the mi-

croscope:

In order to light up the epi-uorescence LED, press the main switch on the rear in position II. Then rotate the

brightness adjustment knob on the left to the desired value. Pull the lter selector (1) to right or left in order to

insert the uorescence lter into the optical path. Put the lter selector (1) in the center if you want to use the

brighteld transmitted illumination. Unlike a mercury lamp system, B-383LD LED illumination doesn’t need any

power-up time for heating, and can be used immediately after switching on. Also, the LED source is pre-aligned

in factory and doesn’t need any alignment operation.

Looking at the uorescent specimen

Focus on your sample, and adjust the light intensity as needed through the brightness adjustment knob. In order

to improve the darkness of the background (thus improving contrast), it is strongly suggested to put the provided

black plate under the stage):

Maintenance

Microscopy environment

This microscope is recommended to be used in a clean, dry and shock free environment with a temperature of

0-40°C and a maximum relative humidity of 85 % (non condensing). Use a dehumidier if needed.

To think about when and after using the microscope

• The microscope should always be kept vertically when moving it and be careful so that no

moving parts, such as the eyepieces, fall out.

• Never mishandle or impose unnecessary force on the microscope.

• Never attempt to service the microscope yourself.

• After use, turn off the light immediately, cover the microscope with the included

dust-cover, and keep it in a dry and clean place.

Electrical safety precautions

• Before plugging in the power supply, make sure that the supplying voltage of your region

matches with the operation voltage of the equipment and that the lamp switch is in off-

position.

•

Users should observe all safety regulations of the region. The equipment has acquired

the CE safety label. However, users do have full responsibility to use this equipment safely.

Cleaning the optics

• If the optical parts need to be cleaned try rst to: use compressed air.

• If that is not sufcient: use a soft lint-free piece of cloth with water and a mild detergent.

• And as a nal option: use the piece of cloth moistened with a 3:7 mixture of ethanol and ether.

Note: ethanol and ether are highly ammable liquids. Do not use them near a heat source, near sparks or

near electric equipment. Use these chemicals in a well ventilated room.

• Remember to never wipe the surface of any optical items with your hands. Fingerprints can damage the

optics.

• Do not disassemble objectives or eyepieces in attempt to clean them.

For the best results, use the OPTIKA cleaning kit (see catalogue).

If you need to send the microscope to Optika for maintenance, please use the original packaging.
