MANUAL

OLYMPUS

TO

OLYMPUS

MICROSCOPE

SERVICING

PERSONNEL

As

is

often

the

case

with

almost

all

of

compound

microscopes

that

unless

they

are

kept

in

good

maintenance

and

storage

after

long

years

of

use,

grease

slums

have

been

dried

up

or

air-borne

dust

has

been

deposited

on

grease

so

much

as

to

interfere

with

smooth

operations

of

various

components,

causing,

for

instance,

excessive

stiffness

or

looseness

in

the

coarse

and

fine

adjustments,

etc;

Microscopes

in

trouble

as

mentioned

above

need

disassembly

and

lubrication.

As

a

helpful

aid

for

such

a

servicing

purpose,

this

manual

has

been

written

in

the

hope

that

you

will

make

the

best

use

of

it

and

give

us

any

comment

on

it.

Requisites

for

repairs:

1.

First

of

all,

ascertain

what

parts

of

the

microscope

the

user

or

owner

of

which

wishes

you

to

repair.

2.

Never

fail

to

check

the

entire

function

of

the

microscope

before

you

commence

its

repair.

a)

Find

out

what

parts

are

defective

and

how

much

they

are

damaged.

b)

Prior

to

repair,

think

of

the

best

possible

order

of

disassembling

the

defective

parts

in

a most

efficient

way.

3.

After

completing

the

repair,

check

the

functions

of

not

only

the

re-

assembled

parts

but

also

the

entire

microscope

to

make

sure

no

defect

should

be

left

unremedied.

4.

Be

careful

not

to

deform

repair

parts

during

the

assembly;

make

it

practice

to

use

tools

and

jigs

specified

for

purpose.

5.

Make

repairs

promptly

and

accurately.
