3.0 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
2.0 INTRODUCTION
Components of the microscope
Unpack the components of the microscope from the box and put them on a stable surface. In the
packaging you nd:
1 - PILLAR BASE
Connect the mains plug into the socket at the base
Make sure, before you turn the illumination on, that the voltage selector is set to the mains voltage for your
region.
The power cord should be used only on network sockets equipped with adequate grounding.
Contact a technician to check the state of your electrical system. If there is no need to install additional acces-
sories, the instrument is now ready for use. Once positioned and installed with the necessary components,
the microscope is ready to be used. Your microscope is a laboratory instrument designed to last. Handle it
always carefully and avoid abrupt vibrations or shocks. Always disconnect the power cable from the micro-
scope when not in use for long time, while you clean it or when you perform any maintenance.
AVOID DISASSEMBLING THE INSTRUMENT
Do not disassemble the instrument. This entails the cancellation of the warranty and may cause
malfunction.
