IMPORTANT
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. Be sure to remove the specimen
before moving this product.
The SZ2 series of stereo microscopes are provided with ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) protection specifications. They are
provided with electroconductive coating in their external finish to reduce the surface resistance and grounding lead wires
in their standard base or frame to eliminate static electricity from them.
To maintain the ESD protection performance, always use the microscope in combination with the
modules described in this manual or options having the ESD protection specifications. Otherwise, the
grounding will not work properly.
·The eye shades of the eyepieces are not provided with the ESD protection performance. Be sure to
remove them
·The SZ2-SPBW stage plate is provided with the ESD protection performance only in the black surface.
NOTE
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
b
a
· Hold the bottom of the stand with one hand while holding base column with the other hand to avoid tilting the
microscope.
· In case the specimen is damaged by erroneous operation, promptly take the infection prevention measures.
2. When the optional 0.5X auxiliary objective ais used, the microscope become unstable due to the use of the SZ2-
ET auxiliary sleeve b. Be careful not to topple down the microscope. )
In addition, when a camera is mounted on the SZ61TR, special care is required because the microscope becomes
more unstable.
1Getting Ready
1. A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.
2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, dust or
vibrations. (For the operating conditions, see “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 13.)
3. Be careful not to leave stains and fingerprints on the lens surfaces.
Contamination of the lens and mirror deteriorates the view of images.
4. Do not turn the left and right zoom adjustment knobs in the opposite directions, as this will result in a failure.
5. The rubber parts of the eyepiece sleeves are fragile and should be handled carefully. If they are damaged, dirt will
penetrate inside the microscope.

2
2Maintenance and Storage
1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower
and wipe gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).
If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze slightly moistened with commercially available
absolute alcohol.
Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully.
Be sure to keep it away from open flames or potential sources of electrical sparks –– for
example, electrical equipment that is being switched on or off.
Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.
2. Do not attempt to use organic solvents to clean the microscope components other than the glass components. To
clean them, use a lint-free, soft cloth slightly moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.
3. Do not disassemble any part of the microscope as this could result in malfunction or reduced performance.
4. When disposing of the microscope. Check the regulations and rules of your local government and be sure to
observe them.

3-1 Base
When reflected light illumination is used, the stage plate can be placed
either the white or black surface facing up depending on which side
makes the specimen easier to view.
·To maintain the ESD performance, use the black surface of
the SZ2-SPBW stage plate.
·When transmitted light illumination is used, use the optional
SP-C transparent glass stage plate.
NOTE
This operation is intended to facilitate the rotation of the
knobs while preventing spontaneous drop of the microscope
body. It is recommended to set the knob tension to a slightly
higher level than the point where spontaneous drop occurs.
Hold the left and right focus adjustment knobs awith both hands,
fix the left knob and rotate the right knob. The rotation tension of the
knobs increases or decreases according to the direction in which the

quickly duplicated in future observations.
Diopter scale of the 10X eyepieces
The valid range of the diopter scale is between –8 and +5 but
a slight margin is added to it. Therefore, the diopter value may
exceed +5 or –8 when it is adjusted to the maximum. In this
case, whether the diopter value is over +8 or under –5 can be
identified by the length of the eyepiece.

The eye shades are not provided with ESD protection
performance.
When ESD protection is required, do not use the eye
shades.
When Wearing Eyeglasses
Use with the eye shades in the normal, folded-down position. This will
prevent the eyeglasses from being scratched.
When Not Wearing Eyeglasses
Extend the folded eye shades in the direction of the arrow to prevent
extraneous light from entering between the eyepieces and eyes.
NOTE
4Using the Eye Shades
The magnification can be limited in the desired range by
setting each stopper on the microscope body (also used as
the magnification indices) and the stopper ring on each zoom
adjustment knob. The right zoom adjustment knob is used to
limit the higher end of the magnification, and the left knob is
used to limit the lower end.
Using an Allen wrench, loosen the clamping screw of the right stopper
ring aand free it. (Also free the left knob in this way.)
Rotate the right zoom adjustment knob bto align the desired higher-
limit magnification with the index (stopper) c.
Gently apply the stopper ring ato the stopper cand tighten the
clamping screw using the Allen wrench to retain this condition.
Set the left zoom adjustment knob according to the desired lower-limit
magnification by rotating the left knob and clamping the left stopper
ring in the same way as above.

·Themicrometerdiskframemaybetightforcertainmicrometerdisks.
In this case, turn the frame by holding the circumference with
a light, uniform force or by applying the frame against a rubber
sheet. Do not grasp the frame with a strong force, as this may
deform the frame and make it harder to remove it.
· Be careful not to touch the lens surface with your finger.
Due to their structures the WHSZ20X-H/30X-H eyepieces
apply a magnification on the focused plane of the
eyepiece micrometer disk.
These magnifications are 1.3X with the WHSZ20X-H and
2X with the WHSZ30X-H. Be sure to compensate for these
magnifications when using the eyepiece micrometer disk
in measurements.
Also, insertion of the eyepiece micrometer disk extends
the light path length and deviates the position of the
diopter scale. Correct this deviation by turning the diopter
adjustment ring of the eyepiece toward “+”.
When the eyepiece micrometer disk is not used, store it by
wrapping in a clean, soft cloth.
