2. Installation & Operation
2.1 Installation
a) Loose the two screws(A), put down the binocular (trinocular) head, then connect the illuminator
with the stand and tighten the two
screws(A).
b) Connect binocular (trinocular)
head with the front of the
illuminator, then tighten the three
screws(B).
c) Connect the power plug of lamp
house with the socket of the base,
and tighten the screws of the socket.
d) Put the eyepiece into the eyepiece tube. Fig.3
2.2 Confirm the voltage is available, then take power.
1) Turn potentiometer, and make the light to the lowest position. Open the power switch, and
adjust the potentiometer to get the available light.
2) Sample placing:
4
Put the sample onto the stage plate, turn the stage knob to put the sample into the light path.
3) Put 10X objective into light path, turn coarse focusing knob, observe from right eyepiece with
right eye, then turn slowly fine focusing knob to make the image clear after finding image.
4) Put the other objectives into the light path.
5) Interpupillary distance and diopter adjustment
2.3 Interpupillar distance adjustment:
Interpupillar distance is different for
everyone, so interpupillary distance
should be adjusted before using
binocular microscope. Please take the
two eyepiece tubes to turn until the
bright rings observed by two eyes are
in superposition entirely.

3. Maintenance Fig.4
3.1 Clean microscope
3.1.1 Don’t touch the lens with hand, Dust on lens should be cleaned by soft brush or absorbent
cotton or cleaned by absorbent cotton, lens paper with the mixture of alcohol and ether (proportion
1:4).
3.1.2 Alcohol and ether all are burnt early, please take them away from fire. Be careful for turn on
and off power.
3.1.3 Don’t clean painted metal and galvanizing metal with organic solvent such as alcohol, ether
or the mixture of the both. Silicon cloth or soft cleaning preparation is suggested to clean it.
3.1.4 Plastic should be cleaned by soft cloth with clear water.

3.2 Environment of using and placing
3.2.1 Microscope should be used and placed in a cool, dry, non-dust, non-shake and non-corrosive
gases environment.
3.2.2 Microscope should be used in environment of indoor temperature 0°-40°C and maximum
relative humidity 85%.
3.2.3 Removing equipment is suggested to be installed when microscope used in heavy humidity
area to avoid fungus and mist damage instrument.
3.2.4 Please pay attention to prevent microscope from violent shake and vibration in application
and in carrying. Don’t drag it on the surface of worktable to avoid damage to microscope and
worktable.
3.3 Replacement of bulb
3.3.1 Turn off power, and pull out plug.
3.3.2 Wait the bulb become cool.
▲ Please be sure that the bulb is cool, then follow by the nest operations.
3.3.3 Lay aside the microscope reliably, unscrew the knurled thumb screw of the lamp housing
cover on the underside of base.
3.3.4 Pull over the lamp housing cover.
3.3.5 Pull out the bulb should be replaced, hold a new bulb with silk cloth to avoid fingerprint and
dust affect bulb brightness and service life, and insert fully the contact pins into the bulb socket.
3.3.6 Close the lamp housing cover, and screw the knurled thumb screw.
▲After working for above 8 hours continuously, better cut off the microscope about 30 minutes.
3.4 Replacement of fuse
3.4.1 Cut off power of microscope, and pull out the plug.
3.4.2 Unscrew fuse cap in the back of base, take out old fuse.
