Maintenance and Storage
1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow away dirt using a commercially available blower and wipe
the components gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).
If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it with 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, since such operation may cause ignition of a fire.
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 not using the microscope, store it in a dry locker or cover it with a dust cover.

5. To clean the condenser, fully loosen the securing knob 1, then remove
the condenser by lowering it with the condenser height adjustment knob
2, and wipe the front lens of the condenser.
The condenser can be attached by reversing the above removal
procedure (Fig. 3).
6. When disposing of the microscope, check the regulations and rules
of your local government and be sure to observe them.
