i. Caution
1. Do not discard the microscope container. The container should be retained should
the microscope ever requires reshipment.
2. Keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, and dusty
environments. Ensure that the microscope is located on a smooth, level and firm
surface.
3. If any specimen solutions or other liquids splash onto the stage, wipe up the
spillage immediately. Otherwise, the instrument may be damaged.
ii. Care and Maintenance
1. Do not attempt to disassemble any component including eyepieces, objectives or
focusing assembly.
2. Keep the instrument clean; remove dirt and debris regularly. Accumulated dirt on
metal surfaces should be cleaned with a damp cloth. More persistent dirt should be
removed using a mild soap solution. Do not use organic solvents for cleansing.
3. The outer surface of the optics should be inspected and cleaned periodically using
an air stream from an air bulb. If dirt remains on the optical surface, use a soft cloth
or cotton swab dampened with a lens cleaning solution (available at camera stores).
All optical lenses should be swabbed using a circular motion. A small amount of
absorbent cotton wound on the end of a tapered stick makes a useful tool for
cleaning recessed optical surfaces. Avoid using an excessive amount of solvent as
this may cause problems with optical coatings or cemented optics or the flowing
solvent may pick up grease making cleaning more difficult.
Store the instrument in a cool and dry environment. Cover the microscope with the

dust cover when not in use.
