- Page 11 Scan Optics aluminium transit cases provide the best protection for a microscope where it is likely to transported to more than one location. These transit cases are fitted with polyurethane-polyetherfoam which houses the individual microscope subassemblies and provides excellent durability.
- Page 12 If the microscope is to be stored or transported, it is recommended that the original packaging be re-used for this purpose. If possible, re-pack each assembly in its original plastic bag. The best storage location is a low humidity, dust-free environment, such as an air-conditioned room.
- Page 13 Remove the pillar, base and clamping plate from the case or carton. Insert the pillar into the hole in the base. Tighten the two grubscrews using the 5mm socket key found in the tool kit to fix the pillar in place Remove the clamping plate from the case or carton and place it on the pillar.
- Page 14 1. When attaching the clamp to the floor stand, tilt the clamp backwards to allow it to fit through the hole in the clamping plate. 2. The floor stand is clamped vertically to the main clamp assembly at one point vertically and at two points horizontally.
- Page 15 In this case, add a stiffening plate (such as Scan Optics Table Plate; Cat No. SO-291) beneath the mounting surface and apply the clamp over the stiffening plate and the original mounting surface.
- Page 16 3. Locate the microscope head assembly in the end of the arm assembly. Make sure the microscope assembly is seated all the way down in the collet. Tighten the wrist knob underneath the end of the arm assembly to secure the microscope in the collet. 4.
- Page 17 5. Remove the eyepiece blanks and insert the eyepieces. Insert the focusing eyepiece in the LHS eyepiece tube from the observer’s perspective and secure in place so that the scal marker is easily visible. Place the fixed eyepiece in the RHS eyepiece tube and secure using the screw. Retain the eyepiece caps in a safe place for when storing the microscope.
- Page 18 The Scan Optics Ophthalmic Microscope may be connected to either an earthed mains (90-260V) ac supply, or a 12V dc supply, or both. The power supply will automatically select the correct mains voltage. If both ac and dc supplies are connected, the dc supply (eg 12V battery) will act as an emergency backup for mains power.
- Page 19 Scan Optics recommend the use of gel cell or sealed rechargeable lead-acid 12V batteries such as Scan Optics SO-9210 (38Ah capacity). These batteries are maintenance-free and can be operated, charged or stored in any position without leakage.
- Page 20 The Scan Optics foot control allows control of focus, zoom and light intensity functions. To connect the foot control, simply plug the cable into the socket on the right side of the front panel of the power supply. Whenever the foot control is used to control any function, the LED indicator located below the foot control connector on the power supply will illuminate.
- Page 21 The arm assembly includes a number of features which enable the microscope to be adjusted in almost any position. The best combination of settings will depend on the individual user and the particular surgical environment. The pillar knob allows the arm assembly to be locked in position about the pillar. The elbow knob allows the shape of the arm to be locked in position;...
- Page 22 The microscope arm is fitted with an adjustable gas spring. By adjusting the position of one end of the gas spring, the amount of upward force can be changed. Thus if accessories are added to or removed from the microscope, the force setting can be adjusted to compensate for the change in weight, thereby maintaining the same desired ‘feel’...
- Page 23 A good working knowledge of the microscope head assembly will be of great assistance in achieving and maintaining optimum optical and mechanical performance.
- Page 24 Scan Optics microscopes are supplied with two sets of sterilisable covers – one set may be used while the other set is undergoing sterilisation. Additional sterilisable covers may be purchased from Scan Optics in the event of loss or damage.
- Page 25 The auxiliary light may be used for general illumination of the surgical area or alternatively for illumination of the instrument tray. To adjust the position of the auxiliary light, loosen the clamp knob which is located underneath the universal joint. Hold the auxiliary light with one hand and manoeuvre the light until it is pointing in the desired direction.

- Page 27 The main lamp supplied has a rated average life of 50 hours; however the actual life of the lamp will depend on the intensity setting normally used. The highest setting is an over-run setting which increases light output but will reduce lamp life to about 20 hours. Conversely, running the lamp at the next lowest setting will produce a lamp life of about 60 hours.
- Page 28 Turn off the power supply. Note that if the lamp is replaced while it is still hot, protective gloves may be required. Unscrew the filter assembly from the front of the auxiliary light. Do not undo the grubscrews which hold the filters in place. The lamp is connected to the lampholder, which is hard-wired back to the connector block.
- Page 29 " The microscope is fitted with anti-mould protection which is effective for approximately three years. However, the effective life of this protection will depend on environmental factors such as the temperature and humidity of the place where the microscope is stored. Regular inspection of the microscope will help early identification of mould and alert the user of the need to replace the anti-mould protection.
- Page 30 Peel the adhesive backing from the new anti-mould pellet and place it in the same location. Zoom the microscope in and out all the way to make sure the zoom optics do not dislodge the pellet. Screw the cover back on, ensuring that the anti-mould pellet has not been dislodged. Replace the prism protector on the auxiliary objective assembly, making sure that the slot lines up with the location of the lamphouse prism.
