SAFETY NOTES
1. Open the shipping carton carefully to prevent any accessory, i.e. objectives or eyepieces, from
dropping and being damaged.
2. Keep the instrument out of direct sunlight, high temperature or humidity, and dusty environments.
3. If any specimen solutions or other liquids splash onto the stage, objective or any other component,
disconnect the power cord immediately and wipe up the spillage. Otherwise, the instrument may be
damaged.
4. LAMP REPLACEMENT -- CAUTION: the glass envelope of the lamp may be extremely
hot. DO NOT attempt to change the lamp before it is completely cooled or without
5. All electrical connectors (power cord) should be inserted into an electrical surge protector to prevent
damage due to voltage fluctuations.
6. FUSE REPLACEMENT -- For safety when replacing the fuse (ONLY replace with the
7. Confirm that the input voltage indicated on your microscope corresponds to your line voltage. The
use of a different input voltage other than indicated will cause severe damage to the microscope.
NOTE: Always plug the stereomicroscope power cord into a suitable grounded electrical outlet. A
grounded 3-wire cord is provided.
wearing adequate skin protection.
same size, type and rating of original fuse), be sure the main switch is in the off position,
disconnect the power cord from outlet, and replace the fuse. Reconnect the power cord
and turn unit on.
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, lint free 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 solvents as
this may cause problems with optical coatings or cemented optics or the flowing solvent may pick up
grease making cleaning more difficult.
4. Store the instrument in a cool, dry environment. Cover the microscope with the dust cover when not
in use.
5. UNITRON® microscopes are precision instruments which require periodic servicing to maintain
proper performance and to compensate for normal wear. A regular schedule of preventative
maintenance by qualified personnel is highly recommended. Your authorized UNITRON® distributor
can arrange for this service.

Adjusting the Field Diaphragm (Fig. 19-20)
Reflected Illumination
By limiting the amount of light entering the condenser, the
field diaphragm can prevent other light and strengthen the
image contrast. When the image is just on the edge of the
field of view, the objective will obtain the clearest image.
Push the field diaphragm adjustment lever ① all the way in
to minimize the field diaphragm.
Observe the image through the eyepiece and adjust the
field diaphragm centering screws ② on both sides of the
illuminator until the image is in the center (Fig. 20).
Slowly open the field diaphragm adjustment lever ①.
When the image in the diaphragm field in aligned with the
field of view, the field diaphragm is centered.
Adjusting the Aperture Diaphragm (Fig. 19 & 21)
Reflected Illumination
The aperture size is increased or decreased by opening
or closing the aperture diaphragm adjustment lever ③.
When the aperture is closed, the brightness and
resolution are decreased but the contrast and range of
focus are increased. If the aperture diaphragm is opened,
the brightness and resolution are increased; however, the
contrast and range of focus are diminished.
For optimal viewing conditions set the condenser aperture
diaphragm lever to match the magnification of the
objective in the optical path.
Adjusting the Oblique Illumination (Fig. 22)
Reflected Illumination
When the oblique illumination lever ① is pushed all the
way in, the system is in oblique illumination observation;
when pulled all the way out, it is in normal reflected
illumination observation.

Adjusting the Aperture Diaphragm
Transmitted Illumination (Fig. 25, 28-29)
The aperture diaphragm ① decides the numerical aperture
of the illumination system. If the N.A. of the illumination
matches the N.A. of the objective ②, you’ll achieve better
resolution and contrast and increase the depth of field.
As the contrast is usually low, adjust the condenser aperture
diaphragm to 70-80% of the objective N.A. being used. If
necessary, remove the eyepiece to observe through the
eyepiece tube. Adjust the aperture diaphragm adjustment
ring ② (Fig. 25) to adjust proportion until you see the image
(Fig. 28).
Use of graduation: set the N.A. of the condenser to 80% of
the N.A. of objective (Fig. 28).
Using the (Optional) Color Filters (Fig. 29)
Transmitted Illumination
A color filter can make the background more suitable and
