This microscope is a scientic precision instrument designed to last for many years with a minimum
of maintenance. It is built to high optical and mechanical standards and to withstand daily classroom
and laboratory use.
Optika reminds you that this manual contains important information on safety and maintenance, and
that it must therefore be made accessible to the instrument users.
Optika declines any responsibility deriving from instrument use that does not comply with this man-
ual.
3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
3.1 The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the
edge of the container and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the
optical items (objectives and eyepieces) fall out and get damaged. Lift the microscope from
the container and put it on a stable desk.
4.1 Turn the observation head to a comfortable position for observation.
4.2 Ensure that the specimen is centred over the stage opening. Lock the specimen slide on the
mechanical stage using the two slide clamps.
4.3 The microscope comes with an electrical illuminator. Insert the plug of the external power
supply into the power socket on the back of the microscope and turn on the light by rotating
the knob under the condenser.
4.4 Rotate the coarse focusing knob to bring the slide into focus with the 4X objective. Adjust the
ne focusing knob to get the image sharp and clear.
4.5 Turn the nosepiece to choose the objective you need.

5.1 Always think about
- The following environment is required: Indoor temperature: 0-40°C, Maximum relative humi-
dity: 85 % (not condensing)
- Keep the microscope away from dust and shocks while in use.
- Turn off the light immediately after use.
- Use a soft lens tissue to clean the optics after use.
- Only if needed, use a cloth moistened with water and a mild detergent, rinsing with water
and drying immediately with a lint-free cloth.
- After use, cover the microscope with the included dust-cover, and keep it in a dry and clean
place.
5.2 Do not!
- Wipe the surface of any optical items with your hands. Fingerprints can damage the optics.
- Use solvents, neither on the microscope, nor on the optics.
- Disassemble objective or eyepieces to attempt to clean them.
- Mishandle or impose unnecessary force on the microscope.
- Clean the unit with volatile solvents or abrasive cleaners.
- Attempt to service the microscope yourself.
5.3 If you need to send the microscope to Optika for maintenance, please use the original
packaging.
Universal Power Supply: 100-240V 50-60Hz; Output 5V 500mA
Illuminator: 1W cold white LED

3.0 DISIMBALLAGGIO E MONTAGGIO DEL MICROSCOPIO
3.1 Il microscopio è alloggiato in un contenitore di polistirolo preformato.
Aprire il contenitore tenendo la scritta bianca “UP” in alto.
4.1 Ruotare la testa di osservazione in una posizione comoda per l’osservazione.
4.2 Mettere un vetrino campione al centro del tavolino in modo che la luce proveniente dal basso
lo illumini.
4.3 Il microscopio è dotato di illuminatore LED. Inserire il jack dell’alimentatore esterno nella pre-
sa sul retro e ruotare la manopola posta sotto il condensatore per attivare il LED.
4.4 Inserire l’obiettivo 4x e ruotare la manopola di messa a fuoco, mettere il campione a fuoco.
