MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

CHAPTER 1 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

1. Maintenance of Microscope
1) Fundamental handling a. Read the instruction manual thoroughly, handle the microscope correctly. b. Be sure to make a usual cleaning, especially after every use of microscope. c. When handling the microscope, do not expose it to shock, moisture, heat and dust. d. If the problem occurs, do not treat it in self-judgement. 2) Using and storing conditions a. The microscope should be used under no vibration. If it is placed in such environment as vibration, this causes disturbance and fatigue in observation. b. It should not be stored in high humidity. Such condition causes fungus, corrosion on lens and rust on metal part. Therefore, special caution is exercised if stored in a long period of time. c. Intense temperature change should be avoided. Be careful not to place the microscope near window exposed to direct sunlight and air conditioner. When bringing it into warm room from cold storage location in winter, condensation occurs on lens and metal part, it causes fungus and rust. d. It should be kept clean. The microscope is required to keep away from dust that causes contamination, fungus on lens and failure of sliding part in the frame. Be careful not to place it in the environment where the corrodent chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen fluoride and acid are handled.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

2-2 Cleaning method for the optical components

Required tools: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Lens tissue Cotton swab or tweezers etc. Blower Magnifier (Eyepiece is possible to be used by turning it upside down. Refer to page 10.) Cleaning solution: e.g. Alcohol

Before cleaning: Lightly brush the lens surface or blow with the blower before wiping with tissue. This removes particles that may scratch the lens surface. (to protect the lens coating)

HOW TO CLEAN THE OBJECTIVE LENS 1 2 3 4

Moisten the tip of cotton swab with cleaning solution.

With a circular motion, wipe the top lens surface with the cotton swab, to thoroughly remove any oil or dirt from the lens.

Dip a new cotton swab in the cleaning solution and shake vigorously to remove any excess cleaning solution.

Wipe the objective lens from the center towards the periphery, while rotating the lens.

When the lens size is large and difference in level between the lens and the lens frame is small: Fold the lens tissue several times and moisten it with cleaning solution. After that, apply the folded line edge to the center of lens, push it with index finger and turn the objective by the other hand to clean the lens while moving it from the center towards the periphery.

Cleaning the immersion objective:

Wipe off the immersion oil while absorbing it with lens tissue that is not moistened. After that, clean the lens as the same manner mentioned on the left. When the top surface of lens frame is higher than that of lens and remained dirty portion on the periphery of lens can not be wiped off, clean the lens referring the above figures, 1 to 4.

Put it on the desk

CX21 MAINTENANCE MANUAL HOW TO CLEAN THE FILTER

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

Fold the lens tissue into two or three layers and moisten its shaded part with cleaning solution.

Hold the filter at its edge and fold the lens paper from the lens center to outside as illustrated. Move the lens tissue gradually to outside while turning the filter by left hand.

HOW TO CLEAN THE PRISM

Hold a sheet of lens tissue between your middle and index fingers, then fold and wrap it around your index finger. Hold the tissue down with your thumb and moisten it with sufficient cleaning solution.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

HOW TO CLEAN THE EYEPIECE

1
Wrap a sheet of lens tissue around a cotton swab as illustrated. If the area to be cleaned is large, wrap the lens tissue looser and thicker. Otherwise, make a thin, tight wrap.

2
Dip the wrapped lens tissue in the cleaning solution, and wipe the eyepiece from the center towards the periphery in a circular motion.

Important notes: 1) Never rub the lens surface strongly. 2) Do not use the same lens tissue to clean more than one lens. 3) Do not moisten the lens tissue with an excessive amount of cleaning solution. 4) When cleaning with tweezers, be careful not to protrude its tip from the lens tissue.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE

3. Preparing for Inspection

1) Set the main switch A to I (ON). 2) Adjust the brightness by turning the adjustment knob B . 3) Place a specimen on the stage. 4) Engage the 10X objective in the light path. 5) Rotate the condenser height adjustment knob C to move the condenser to the highest position. * The condenser is usually used in the highest position. If the entire observed field of view is not bright enough, brightness may be improved by lowering the condenser slightly. 6) Looking through the eyepiece in the right sleeve without the diopter adjustment ring, turn the coarse and fine focus adjustment knobs D to bring the specimen into focus. 7) Looking through the eyepiece in the left sleeve with the diopter adjustment ring, turn only the diopter adjustment ring E to focus on the specimen. (At this time, adjust the interpupillary distance so that the binocular visions on the left and right fields of view coincide completely.) 8) Adjust the aperture iris diaphragm; Since the aperture irirs diaphragm has an objective magnification scale (4X, 10X, 40X,100X), rotate the diaphragm ring F so that the magnification scale corresponding to the objective in use faces frontward.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CHAPTER 2 INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1. Checking Performance of Microscope
Using the CX21 inspection sheet (P.7), check the electrical unit, mechanical and optical performance.

2. Checking Dirty Portion

2-1 Image influence caused by dirt on each component
The following figure shows the influence of image on each optical component if stains or dust is adhered to that portion. In general, the microscope image is largely affected by dirt adhered on the nearer portion to a specimen and image surfaces. Therefore, the optical components should be kept clean and dust-free.

C Prism

D Objective A Specimen B Condenser lens B or A Glass (Frosted : underside) C Frosted glass C Collector lens

Dirt is clearly seen. Blurred contours of dirt is seen. Dirt is seen when the aperture iris diaphragm is stopped down. Dirt is not directly seen, but contrast of image deteriorates.

CX21 MAINTENANCE MANUAL

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

2-2 How to find dirty portion through observation

1) Close the aperture iris diaphragm. (When the aperture iris diaphragm is closed, it facilitates finding the dirt particles because the depth of focus increases and the dirt position bring into focus. However, very small dirt particle may not be found in this method.) 2) Observe a specimen through the eyepiece. If dirt is seen by observing it, look for the portion where stains or dust is adhered by following the description below.

Eyepiece
Check it by rotating the eyepiece after clamping screw is loosened. (Wipe carefully and gently so as not to damage the lens coating.)

Note: If dirty portion can not be identified in the above, it is assumed that internal lens and prism are contaminated. In this case, please contact your Authorized Olympus dealer.

2-3 How to check cleaning condition

1) When a large lens is checked, look at the lens while putting it toward bright side or breathe on the lens and observe the condition that the haze on the whole surface of the lens disappears evenly.

Light

Dust becomes conspicuous when looking at it with the lens inclination changed.

If there is a dirty part or a remained part that is not cleaned completely, the haze of this part will disappear slower than that of the other part.

2) For a small lens such as top lens of objective, check it by magnifier.

An eyepiece can be substituted for magnifier by turning the eyepiece upside down.
