Handling Precautions
1. Handle Carefully!
Handle the microscope gently, taking care to avoid sharp impacts.
2. Purpose
Use the microscope only for microscopic observation. Do not use it for
any other applications.
3. Microscope Location
Select a location with limited exposure to dust, vibration, high temperature
and humidity (40°C, 80% or more), and direct sunlight. Leave a certain
space between the microscope and the nearby wall to allow the user to
look at the warning labels on the lamphouse.
4. 12V100W Power Supply Unit
The power supply unit specified on page 53 "ELECTRICAL
SPECIFICATIONS" is the power supply unit to light up the Nikon
microscopes' 1 2V100W lamp. Do not use it for other purposes.
Also, the user may not use the power supply unit if it is broken, and may
not open the cover of the power supply unit.
5. Line Voltage
Confirm that the input voltage to the 1 2V1 00W power supply unit
corresponds to your line voltage. Be sure to use the specified power
supply unit (described in page 53 "ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS").
6. Light Source
The microscope uses a 1 2V, 1OOW halogen lamp bulb as the standard
light source. Do not use any lamp not described in the "ELECTRICAL
SPECIFICATIONS" (on page 53). If a lamp bulb of over-rated wattage is
used, the light adjusting circuit may be damaged.
7. With Lamp On —CAUTION —
Do not touch the lamphouse or place any heat-sensitive object near it,
since the lamphouse becomes extremely hot during use. Also use great
care not to bring volatile substances (such as gasoline, thinner, alcohol,
etc.) close to the lamphouse. Such exposure may result in inflammation
or other dangers.
8. Replacing the Halogen Lamp
Before replacing the 12V, 100W halogen lamp, turn off the power switch
and unplug the power cord. When replacing the halogen lamp, wait until
it cools down. Do not touch the glass of the halogen lamp with bare
hands.
