IMPORTANT

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 and causing infections. Be sure to

remove the specimen before moving this product.

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

· The microscope may become unstable when certain intermediate attachments and/or photography unit are mounted

on it. Take the measures so that the microscope does not turn over.

2. To prevent the microscope body from turning over, its left-right pivot

angle must be limited to 30° as shown in Fig. 1. The tilt of the desktop

surface should be no more than 5°.

3. Sufficient care is required during observation with a low-magnification

objective, because the objective’s long WD (Working Distance) can dis-

place the microscope body to a higher position.

The measures for prevention of turning over are also required when us-

ing an auxiliary pillar (SZH-P400/P600), because this also makes the

microscope body to be displaced to a higher position.

4. To adjust the microscope body height, be sure to hold the microscope

body with one hand while loosening the focusing assembly clamping

knob @. (Fig. 1)

(Use the drop prevention collar (SZX-R) to prevent a hazard from occur-

ring.)

Be careful not to pinch your finger during the adjustment.
