Informaon for Wireless Devices
Page 2
Wireless Devices and your Health
Wireless Products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency
electromagnec energy. The level of energy emied by Wireless products
however is far much less than the electromagnec energy emied by wire
device like for example mobile phones.
Because Wireless products operate within the guidelines found in radio
frequency safety standards and recommendaons, JC LAB believes Wireless
products is safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendaons
reect the consensus of scienc community and result from deliberaons of
panels and commiees of sciensts who connually review and interpret the
extensive research literature.
In some situaons or environments, the use of Wireless Products may be
restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representaves of
the organizaon. These situaons may for example includes:
◆Using the Wireless products equipment on board of airplanes, or
◆In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices
or services is perceived or idened as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in
a specic organizaon or environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to
ask for authorizaon to use the Wireless device prior turning on the
equipment.

This microscope is a scienc precision instrument designed to last for many
years with a minimum of maintenance. It is built to high opcal and
mechanical standards and to withstand daily classroom and laboratory use.
JC LAB reminds you that this manual contains important informaon on safety
and maintenance, and that it must therefore be made accessible to the
instrument users. JC LAB declines any responsibility deriving from instrument
use that does not comply with this manual.

4.1 The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove
the tape from the edge of the container and li the top half of the container.
Take some care to avoid that the opcal items (Glass Stage Plate and
eyepieces) fall out and get damaged. Li the microscope from the container
and put it on a stable desk.
Do not touch with bare hands opcal surfaces such as lenses, lters or
glasses. Traces of grease or other residuals may deteriorate the nal
image quality and corrode the opcs surface in a short me.
4.3 Assembling the microscope
1. When handling the components, especially the optical parts, avoid touching any lens surfaces
with bare hands or fingers as fingerprints and grease stains affect image quality.
2. After unpacking the stand, put it on a stable and flat table. Loosen the locking screw of the
head holder, adjust the height of the head holder and lock the locking screw again.
Make sure that the support collar is secured firmly below the head holder along the vertical post.
This is important as this collar keeps the microscope from sliding down the column.
3. The head holder should rest on the support collar and both the head holder locking screw and
the collar locking screw should be tightened.
4. Put the stereo body onto the head holder and lock it using the locking screw located on the
right hand side of the head holder. To maintain the best stability, you are advised to lock the
screw on the left hand side of the head holder as well.
5. After removing the wrapping papers and packing materials around the eyepieces and other
optical parts (avoid touching the lens surfaces), carefully place the eyepieces into the eyepiece
tubes.
6.Before turning on the power, plug the illumination power cord into the socket at the top of the
column. Next, plug the power cord of the main frame into the local power supply.

6.0 Using the Microscope
6.1 Adjusng Interpupillary Distance
The Interpupillary Distance is essentially the distance between
your two pupils expressed in millimeters. When set correctly,
one will see one uniform round field of view or FOV. The
adjustment is made by simply pulling apart or pushing together
the eyetubes until a uniform round field is achieved. Make note
of the number marked on the viewing head so you can repeat
the setting later.
6.2 When you place a specimen on the stage, get it into focus
with the right eye while your left eye is closed. Once the right side
is in focus by using the fine focus knob on the microscope, open
your left eye and use the diopter on the left eyetube to bring the
left side in focus.
Once this is done, the microscope is adjusted to this user. Other
users will have different IP's and different focusing abilities.
6.3 Operaon
Once the microscope has been setup in its working location with all of the
components correctly installed, it is ready for use.
Your BIMC-04NS05 is a precision instrument designed to last a lifetime. always
handle your microscope with care and avoid abrupt motion vibration and hock.
6.4 Focusing the Microscope
1. To focus the sample, use the focusing knobs located on both sides of the
head holder. By turning these knobs, the microscope can be moved up or
down a certain distance to focus the sample. This movement is enabled by a
“rack and pinion” mechanism. The tension of the focusing knob can be
adjusted using the tension knob located in the inner region of the focusing
knob on the right.
If a sharp focus cannot be achieved using this knob, release the locking screw
and support collar and move the whole microscope up or down.
(Fig.4)

Page 9
2. Using the focusing knob, focus the sample using the highest magnification
strength. If the sample cannot be brought into focus, adjust the height of the
microscope along the column. Remember to tighten the locking screw and
support collar after adjusting the height of the microscope.
3. Turn the zoom to the highest magnification. Adjust the focusing knob until a
clear and sharp image is obtained.
4. Turn the zoom to the lowest magnification. Adjust the right eyepiece diopter
until the image seen through the right eyepiece is clear and sharp.
5. Repeat the procedure for the left eyepiece. Next, check the image focus for
the entire zoom range; it should now be perfectly parfocal.
6.5 Magnicaon and Working Distance
1. Select the desired magnification strength by adjusting the zoom knob. Change
the optional eyepieces and/ or add an auxiliary objectives, for other range of
magnification.
2. Total magnification used can be calculated using the following equation:
Total magnification = Eyepiece magnification x Zoom magnification x Objective
lens magnification
6.0 Using the Microscope

7.1 Microscope environment
This Microscope is recommended to be used in a clean, dry and shock free
environment with a temperature of 10°-36°C and a maximum relave
humidity of 80 % (non condensing). Use a dehumidier if needed.
To think about when and aer using the microscope
- The microscope should always be kept vercally when moving it and be
careful so that no moving parts, such as the eyepieces, fall out
- Never mishandle or impose unnecessary force on the microscope
- Never aempt to service the microscope yourself.
- Aer use, turn o the light immediately, cover the microscope with the
provided dust-cover, and keep it in a dry and clean place
Electrical safety precauons
-Before plugging in the power supply, make sure that the supplying voltage
of your region matches with the operaon voltage of the equipment and that
the lamp switch is in o posion.
- Users should observe all safety regulaons of the region. The equipment
has acquired the CE safety label. However, users do have full responsibility to
use this equipment safely.
Cleaning the opcs
- If the opcal parts need to be cleaned try rst to: use compressed air
- If that is not sucient: use a so lint-free piece of cloth with water and a
mild detergent.
- And as a nal opon: use the piece of cloth moistened with a 3:7 mixture
of ethanol and ether.
- Note: ethanol and ether are highly ammable liquids. Do not use them
near a heat source, near sparks or near electric equipment. Use these
chemicals in a well venlated room.
- Remember to never wipe the surface of any opcal items with your hands.
Fingerprints can damage the opcs
-Do not disassemble objecves or eyepieces in aempt to clean them.
