The components for the SZn series are shipped in a Styrofoam box for protection. Open the box with
care to avoid that any components fall out and get damaged.
If the instrument has been damaged during the transport, please contact both the carrier and your
supplier immediately.
Put the stereo head onto the focusing carrier of the stand (sold separately) and lock it by the lock
screw on the side of the focusing carrier. during the operation of the microscope, this screw should
always be locked to maintain maximum stability.
unpack the eyepieces and other optical parts carefully and place the eyepieces into the eyepiece
tubes. Make sure that the eyecups are placed on each eyepiece, for a more comfortable view.
when handling the optical parts, avoid touching any lens surface with naked hand or fingers. Any
fingerprint or grease stains will negatively affect the image quality.
