2. Intended Purpose of the Microscope
2. Intended Purpose of the Microscope
The Leica DMI Series microscopes covered in
this manual are designed for biological, routine,
and research applications. This includes the examination of samples taken from the human body
in order to provide information on physiological
or pathological states or congenital abnormalities; to determine the safety and compatibility
with potential recipients; or to monitor therapeutic measures.
The Leica DMI Series is an additional development of Leica’s proven inverted research microscopes, designed for cellular and tissue
examination, micromanipulation and microinjection techniques, microdissection, and confocal
microscopy. The Leica DMI Series is suitable
for universal deployment. All contrast methods
such as dark fi eld, bright fi eld, phase contrast,
DIC, fl uorescence, and modulation contrast are
integral to the microscope and can be adapted
or changed quickly and easily. Variable illumination and imaging beam paths, as well as HCS
optics, modular accessories, and a comprehensive range of peripherals complement the Leica
Microsystems inverted research stand.
IVD
The above-named microscopes comply with the
Council Directive 98/79/EEC concerning in vitro
diagnostics.
Caution!
The manufacturer assumes no liability for
damage caused by, or any risks arising from,
using the microscopes for purposes other
than those for which they are intended or not
using them within the specifi cations of Leica
Microsystems CMS GmbH.
In such cases the declaration of conformity
shall cease to be valid.
Caution!
These (IVD) devices are not intended for use
in the patient environment defi ned by DIN
VDE 0100-710. Neither are they intended for
combining with medical instruments according to EN 60601-1. If a microscope is electrically connected to a medical instrument
according to EN 60601-1, the requirements
defi ned in EN 60601-1-1 shall apply.
Not suitable for examining potentially infectious specimens.
Only trained personnel may operate this type
of device.

3. Safety Notes
Caution!
Power plugs may only be plugged into an outlet equipped with a grounding contact.
Do not interfere with the grounding function
by using an extension cord without a ground
wire. Any interruption of the ground wire inside or outside of the device, or release of
the ground wire connection, can cause the
device to become hazardous. Intentional
ground interruption is not permitted!
Caution!
Peripheral devices with their own or separate power supplies that are connected to
the microscope can have the same protective conductor potential by connecting them
to the ground screw on the back of the Leica
CTR4000, CTR6000, CTR6500 and CTR7000
electronics boxes. For connections without
a ground connector, Leica Service must be
consulted.
Caution!
The microscope’s electrical accessory components are not protected against water. Water can cause electric shock.
Caution!
Protect the microscope from excessive temperature fl uctuations. Such fl uctuations can
lead to the accumulation of condensation,
which can damage the electrical and optical
components.
Ambient temperature: 15–35°C.
Caution!
Before exchanging the fuses or lamps, be absolutely certain to switch off the main power
switch and remove the power cable.
Caution!
Never use any fuses as replacements other
than those of the types and the current ratings listed here. Using patched fuses or
bridging the fuse holder is not permitted. The
use of incorrect fuses may result in a fi re hazard.
12
Caution!
Per defi nition, the connection between
power supply cable and appliance inlet is
the power separator of this device. Thus, the
user is responsible for suffi cient clearance
and accessibility of this area at all times.
Caution!
Do not use the microscope in altitudes exceeding 2000 m ASL/NL.
3.3 Transport and storage
Caution!
Fully equipped, the microscope weighs more
than 18 kg. For transportation, the user has to
take care of the corresponding actions.
See also p. 30.
3. Safety Notes
Caution!
Lamps and lamp housings may be hot!
They must be placed at least 10 cm away
from the wall and away from fl ammable substances.
Particulary, supply and data lines must not
encounter lamp housings!
Caution!
Transport and storage in a range of -25°C
–+70°C and at a humidity not exceeding 80%
(non-condensing).
3.4 Safety Instructions
for Handling the Light Sources
Caution!
Light sources pose a potential irradiation risk
(glare, UV-radiation, IR-radiation). Therefore,
lamps have to be operated in closed housings and only after being mounted.
Never look directly into the beam path (blinding hazard).
Connect the light guide to the microscope
fi rst to prevent exposing the user to the highenergy light output of the Leica EL6000 compact light source.
Never look directly into the light emitted by
the light guide.
3.5 Notes on handling laser devices
The microscope is not suitable for coupling laser
devices into the camera ports (refer to Chapter
4), as this creates a danger to the user from laser
radiation.
For use of the microscope with lasers, Leica
Microsystems offers special microscopes with
additional safety devices.
For further information, please contact your authorized Leica Microsystems representative.
3.6 Notes on handling immersion oil
Caution!
When using immersion oil, take care to avoid
skin contact! Ask the supplier for a safety
data sheet!
13
3. Safety Notes
3.7 Safety Instructions
for Handling Acids and Bases
For examinations using acids or other aggressive
chemicals, particular caution must be taken.
Caution!
Be absolutely certain to prevent coming into
contact with these chemicals.
3.8 Disposal
To dispose of the product at the end of its service
life, please contact Leica Service or Sales.
Please observe national laws and regulations,
such as those implementing and enforcing the
WEEE EU Directive.
Note!
3.9 Type labels
Type label Leica DMI3000 B

5. Unpacking the Microscope
Please carefully compare the contents of the delivery to the packing slip, delivery note or invoice.
We strongly recommend storing a copy of these
documents with the manual to ensure that you
have information on the date and scope of delivery handy for subsequent orders or service work.
Please ensure that no small parts remain in the
packing material. Parts of the packing material
are marked by symbols to simplify recycling.
First, carefully remove all components from the
transportation and packaging materials.
Caution!
Do not put the instrument into operation in the
event of visible damage to the components or
packing material.
Note:
If at all possible, avoid touching the lens surfaces
of the objectives. If fi ngerprints do appear on the
glass surfaces, remove them with a soft leather
or linen cloth. Even small traces of fi nger perspiration can damage the surfaces in a short time.
See the chapter „Care of the Microscope“ → p.
110, for additional instructions.
Installation Location
Work with the microscope should be performed
in a dust-free room, which is free of oil vapor and
other chemical vapor, as well as extreme humidity. At the workplace, large temperature fl uctuations, direct sunlight, and vibration should be
avoided. These may adversely affect measurements and long-term observations.
Allowable ambient conditions
Temperature 15–35°C
Relative humidity maximum 80% up to 30°C
non-condensing
Microscopes in warm and warm-damp climatic
zones require special care in order to prevent the
build up of fungus.
See the chapter „Care of the Microscope“
→ p. 110, for additional instructions.
Caution!
Electrical components must be placed at
least 10 cm from the wall and away from
fl ammable substances.
Caution!
Caution!
Do not connect the microscope or peripherals to an AC power source at this time under
any circumstances!
When installing the microscope, make sure
the power inlet is freely accessible so that
the instrument can be quickly disconnected
from the mains if necessary.

5. Unpacking the Microscope
Transport
For shipping or transporting the microscope and
its accessory components, the original packaging should be used.
As a precaution to prevent damage from vibrations, the following components should be disassembled and packaged separately:
• Unscrew the objectives.
• Remove the eyepieces.
• Remove the condenser.
• Remove the specimen stage.
• Remove the transmitted-light arm.
• Remove the lamp housings.
• Remove the lamp housing mount.
• Disassemble the burner of 106 z lamp housing.
Weight
The weight of the microscope depends on the
particular equipment.
Fully equipped, the microscope weighs more
than 18 kg. For transportation, the user has to
take care of the corresponding actions.
Caution!
For transporting it is essential to remove all
components listed under “Transport”!
• Remove the fi lter cube.
• Remove all moving or loose parts.
