2.0 INTRODUCTION

This microscope is a scientific precision instrument designed to last for many years with a mini-

mum of maintenance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily

classroom and laboratory use.

Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance,

and that it must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users.

Optika declines any responsibility deriving from instrument uses that do not comply with this ma-

nual.

3.1 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.

3.2 The objectives are located in individual protective vials. Remove the objectives from the

vials and insert them into the microscope nosepiece in the order from the lowest magnifica-

tion to the highest, in a clockwise direction from the rear.

3.3 In a separate box you find the metallographic attachment. Take it out and place it onto the

top of the microscope’s stand. Then lock it in position by turning the screw with the provided

allen wrench:

3.4 Place the observation head into the top of the attachment and tighten the lock-screw.

3.5 Insert the eyepieces into the eye tubes.

3.6 Insert polarizer and analyzer filters into their slots in the metallographic attachment.

3.7 Connect the power cable of the epillumination to the appropriate connector on the rear:

4.1 Adjust the observation head

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

and then lock the lock-screw.

4.2 Place the specimen on the stage

Put the specimen on the mechanical stage (transparent glass plate). Ensure that the speci-

men is centred over the stage opening by adjusting the coaxial knobs of the stage.

Brightfield vision

4.3 Lamp settings

The microscope is fitted with a 50 W illuminator. Insert the plug of the cable into the power

socket and turn on the switch on the back of the main body. Turn the brightness adjustment

knob (on the right of the body) until you hear a “click”, meaning that the lamp is on, then

keep turning the knob to a brightness level suitable for observation.

Lamp housing also has centring knobs for fine adjustment of illumination.

4.4 Adjust interpupillary distance

Hold the right and left parts of the observation head by both hands and adjust the interpu-

pillary distance by turning the two parts until one circle of light can be seen. After finishing

the interpupillary adjustment, turn the dioptric adjustment ring on the left eye tube to the “0”

position at the graduation line on the eyetube.

4.5 Focus and diopter adjustment

Loosen the focus-stop knob (near the left focus knob), rotate the coarse focusing knob to

bring the slide into focus with an objective with a low magnification, and then lock the focus-

stop knob. Adjust the fine focusing knob to get the image sharp and clear while observing

with your right eye, then turn the left dioptric adjustment ring to a sharp and clear image

also with the other eye. Turn the tension-adjust-knob (near the right focus knob) to get a

suitable tension for the focus system. When the image is in focus, turn the nosepiece to

choose the objective you need.

4.6 Condenser adjustment

Turn the condenser adjustment knob to move the condenser up or down for a clear and

uniform sample illumination. The two condenser-centring screws can be used to centre the

condenser.

4.7 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.

4.8 Field diaphragm

Adjust the field diaphragm to align the system and to control stray light.

4.9 Additional filters

The chromatic correction filter (blue) can be inserted into the holder (just above the ring of

the field diaphragm) for definition of specimen parts.

4.10 Video capturing (optional)

B-600MET be connected to cameras via a photo/video adaptor, for photo and video cap-

turing. Before taking a picture or filming video, if necessary, obscure with a dark cloth both

the camera viewfinder and the eyepieces and pull out the light path selector lever. Please

refer to the adaptor and camera manuals for further details.

Epillumination vision (metallography)

4.11 Lamp settings

The metallographic attachment is fitted with an high power white LED. Insert the plug of the

cable into the power socket and turn on the switch on the back of the main body. Turn the

brightness adjustment knob (on the left of the body) until you hear a “click”, meaning that

the LED is on, then keep turning the knob to a brightness level suitable for observation.

Please note: if no light comes out from the objective, check that both diaphragms on the

metallographic attachment are open (levers UP).

4.12 Adjust interpupillary distance

Hold the right and left parts of the observation head by both hands and adjust the interpu-

pillary distance by turning the two parts until one circle of light can be seen. After finishing

the interpupillary adjustment, turn the dioptric adjustment ring on the left eye tube to the “0”

position at the graduation line on the eyetube.

4.13 Focus and diopter adjustment

Loosen the focus-stop knob (near the left focus knob), rotate the coarse focusing knob to

bring the slide into focus with an objective with a low magnification, and then lock the focus-

stop knob. Adjust the fine focusing knob to get the image sharp and clear while observing

with your right eye, then turn the left dioptric adjustment ring to a sharp and clear image

also with the other eye. Turn the tension-adjust-knob (near the right focus knob) to get a

suitable tension for the focus system. When the image is in focus, turn the nosepiece to

choose the objective you need.

4.14 Field diaphragm

Adjust the field diaphragm to control stray light. If you want to close the diaphragm, pull

down the lever:

At the bottom of the lever, on both sides of the microscopes, there is a couple of screws that

can centre the field diaphragm.

4.15 Set the numerical aperture

Adjust the aperture of the iris diaphragm to set the numerical aperture of the epilluminator,

thus controlling image contrast and resolution. If you want to close the diaphragm, pull down

the lever:

At the bottom of the lever, on both sides of the microscopes, there is a couple of screws that can

centre the aperture diaphragm.

4.16 Polarization analysis

Slightly pull outwards the polarizer filter (marked “S-PO”) to insert it into the optical path. Turn

the rotating disc of the analyzer filter: if the two filters are correctly inserted, you should find a

position of the analyzer where no light is transmitted (“crossed polarizers” position).

4.17 Darkfield vision

After you focus the sample with the proper objective, slowly push the darkfield lever toward

the inside. Stop pushing as soon as you see a shadow covering your sample. In this manner

you should obtain an oblique illumination that greatly enhances the reliefs and superficial

defects of your sample.

5.0 MAINTENANCE

5.1 Always think about

- The following environment is required: Indoor temperature: 0-40°C, Maximum relative humi

dity: 85 % (non condensing).

- Keep the microscope away from dust and shocks while in use.

- Turn off the light immediately after use.

- Use a soft lens tissue to clean the optics after use.

- Only if needed, use a cloth moistened with water and a mild detergent, rinsing with

water and drying immediately with a lint-free cloth.

- After use, cover the microscope with the included dust-cover, and keep it in a dry and clean

place.

5.2 Do not!

- Wipe the surface of any optical items with your hands. Fingerprints can damage the optics.

- Use solvents, neither on the microscope, nor on the optics.

- Disassemble objective or eyepieces to attempt to clean them.

- Mishandle or impose unnecessary force on the microscope.

- Clean the unit with volatile solvents or abrasive cleaners.

- Attempt to service the microscope yourself.

5.3 How to change the brightfield lamp

- Before changing the lamp, you must pull the plug out of the electrical socket. To avoid being

burnt, wait until the lamp has cooled down.

- Remove the lamp housing by pulling it out of the back of the microscope.

- Pull out the old lamp.

- Hold the new lamp without touching it with your bare hands (e.g. using its packaging, or a

cloth) and insert it into the holder. Replace/close the lamp holder.
