3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY

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 (objecti-
ves 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 Place the observation head onto the top of the arm and tighten the lock-screw. Insert the eyepieces
into the eye tubes.
3.3 Connect the provided power supply to the power supply input jack on the rear of the microscope.
Connect the mains plug into the socket at the base
Make sure, before you turn the illumination on, that the voltage selector is set to the mains voltage for
your region.
The power cord should be used only on network sockets equipped with adequate grounding.
Contact a technician to check the state of your electrical system. If there is no need to install additional
accessories, the instrument is now ready for use. Once positioned and installed with the necessary
components, the microscope is ready to be used. Your microscope is a laboratory instrument desi-
gned to last. Handle it always carefully and avoid abrupt vibrations or shocks. Always disconnect the
power cable from the microscope when not in use for long time, while you clean it or when you perform
any maintenance.
AVOID DISASSEMBLING THE INSTRUMENT
Do not disassemble the instrument. This entails the cancellation of the warranty and may cause
malfunction.
