1. A microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with care and avoid

subjecting it to sudden or severe impact.

2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight, high

temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations. (For the operating condi-

tions, refer to section 5, "SPECIFICATIONS".)

3. When moving the microscope, remove the specimen and modules that

may drop during transport and carefully carry it with the grasping part on

the rear of the arm and the base as shown in Fig. 3 (Weight: approx. 13 kg).

Be sure to remove the specimen @ that is likely to drop and the filter ²

on the filter mount.

# If an intermediate attachment hinders you grasp the grasping part

on the rear, remove the intermediate attachment before carrying.

# Damage to the microscope will occur if you grasp it by the stage,

coarse/fine adjustment knob or binocular section of the observa-

tion tube.

4. The BX41 can be used with up to two intermediate attachments (e.g. a U-

CA magnification changer, U-EPA2 eyepoint adjuster, etc.). For restrictions

when using two intermediate attachments, make sure to read the in-

struction manual provided with the respective intermediate attachments.

# The microscope becomes unstable particularly when the U-TRU

trinocular attachment is attached on the side position or the

microscope height is increased. In this case, take measures for

preventing the microscope from toppling down.
