moistened with a small amount of xylol or 3:7 mixture of natalite.

★(Note that the alcohol and ether are highly flammable, do keep them away from the fire or

potential sources of electrical sparks, use them in a drafty room as possible as you can.)

2.2 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.
