Mounting the Zoom Microscope Body

1. Using the Allen screwdriver, loosen the clamping screws ² of the

microscope mount adapter @ and pull out the adapter in the direction of

the arrow. (Fig. 8)

2. Loosen the clamping screw ³ on the microscope body using the Allen

screwdriver, and attach the adapter @ in that position. (Fig. 9)

3. The screw | of the interlocking section of the vertical fluorescence

illuminator is tightened when shipped from the factory (interlocking

disengagement conditoin). By way of precaution, use the Allen screwdriver

to tighten the screw | (by turning it clockwise) fully until it will not move

any more.

4. Hold the microscope body with both hands, insert it into the adapter @

all the way until it stops, and then tighten the clamping screw ² firmly.

5. Using the Allen screwdriver, loosen the screw | of the interlocking section

(by turning the screw counterclockwise) fully until the screw will not move

any more.

6. Gently rotate the zooming knob 5 all over the magnification scale and

repeat reciprocations for a few times.

If the zooming mechanism of the microscope body and the illuminator

system are coupled correctly, the zooming dial 6 on the illuminator system

should rotate according to the rotation of the zooming knob 5 on the

microscope body.

If the Zooming Dial 6 Is Not Interlocked with the Zooming Knob

The zooming dial 6 is positioned at an extreme position. Rotate the dial

6 away from the extremity and repeat step 6) again.

# When the zooming dial 6 is interlocked with the zooming knob 5,

do not turn the zoom dial 6 manually.

Caution When Removing the Microscope Body

First perform the operation in step 3) above to disengage interlocking,

confirm that the zooming dial 6 of the illuminator system is no longer

interlocked with the movement of the zooming knob 5, and perform the

operations in steps 4), 2) and 1) in this order.

About Highlight Zoom Illumination

The zoom on the illumination side can be adjusted during observation,

independent of the zoom on the microscope body side, by performing

the operation in step 3) above to disengage interlocking and turning the

zooming dial 6 manually.

This adjustment makes the illuminated range concentrate on the center

of the field of view to achieve brighter observation.
