- Page 3 Terminology used to describe components and controls can be found in the diagram on page 2. These instructions are based on the assembly and use of the SMZ-140-N2GG model with additional notes applying specifically for the other models in the series.
- Page 4 Assembly All the steps described for the assembly of the stereomicroscope must be undertaken with extreme care, and without forcing the placement of the distinct parts and elements of the stereomicroscope. A. Place the base of the microscope (13) upright on a flat, Focus stable and clean surface.

Next, using the left eye, look through the eyepiece and adjust the focus by turning the diopter adjuster (2) located on the left-hand tube (3) until the image appears sharp. Do not use the focus knobs to adjust focus (18).
- Page 7 To adapt a video camera an adapter tube is needed. This adapter tube includes 0.5X lenses that correct the parfocality of images, from both binocular and vertical ports, shown on the TV monitor. This is providing that parfocality has been correctly adjusted according to the steps followed in point “D.
- Page 8 B. Electrical maintenance. 1. Changing the bulb. • Changing the transmitted illumination bulb. a. Rest the stereomicroscope on its side being extremely careful, especially with the eyepiece (1) and the stage (11). b. Unscrew the 4 screws indicated (Fig. 3) and open the cap on the base.
