CAUTION
Risk of crushing
If motorized components can be touched with the hand and fingers, please note the
following:
− Risk of crushing! Do not put hands or fingers into the path of the motorized components
(e.g. X,Y scanning tables).
− In the case of the microscope with a motorized Z focus drive, there is a risk of crushing in
the working area, when the movable microscope piece is lowered. Do not reach under the
movable part.
− Automatic movements can be interrupted by pressing the STOP button or by turning the
up/down handwheel of the Z-focus.
− If applicable, the end positions for the motorized range of movement should be set where
appropriate.
CAUTION
Risk of burns when replacing lamps
− When touching hot surfaces (e.g. lamp housing) there is a risk of burning the fingers.
Therefore, pull out the power plug before changing the lamps and allow the device to cool
down for approx. 15 minutes.
− Gas-discharge lamps have a high level of internal pressure when hot and must therefore
only be replaced when cooled, using protective gloves and mask.
CAUTION
Risk of ineffective safety measures
− If it is determined that protective measures are no longer effective, the device must be
taken out of service and secured against inadvertent operation, to avoid the risk of injury.
− Contact ZEISS Service to have the device repaired.
CAUTION
Risk of fire from heat accumulation
− Always check the device is switched off before covering it with a dust cover.
− Clogging or covering of ventilation slats is also prohibited.
− Failure to comply with these two instructions can lead to an accumulation of heat, which
can damage the device and, in the worst-case scenario, cause a fire.
