VISION SCOPE

APPLICATION

Use Stereomicroscopes for viewing larger specimens. Our easy to view, high quality Vision Scopes will magnify the object 10 to 80 times. The T-2200 series and the T-2600 has fluorescent light below the stage, which keeps your specimen cool, and the halogen incident light above adjusts for more clarity. The T-2400 has both upper and lower tungsten lamps. With our value priced T-2400, T-2200 series and T-2600 Stereomicro-scope you’ll find a Scope to meet your needs.

MICROSCOPE PREPARATION

All these models are completely assembled. Remove the Vision Scope from the packing and any protective coverings from the lenses. Unpack the eyecups and slip them over the eyepieces.

Place head in support ring on base (excluding T-2400 model). Carefully check the thumb screws to be sure that the head is firmly attached to the base.

Check the coarse focus tension (T-2200 series & T-2600). The knobs are oversized were designed for better gripping. The coarse focus knob should turn easily to change the focus. Note that the arm will move up and down when focusing. On the T-2400 coarse adjustment is the single knob at the back of the pillar to raise or lower viewing head and fine adjustment is made with the 2 knobs on either side of the viewing head.

OPERATION

a. Place the specimen you are viewing in the center of the stage.

b. Accurately align the objective lens. Move the focus knob until the specimen comes into view. Note that the viewing head will move up and down when focusing.

c. The eyepiece tubes will spread apart or get closer together to fit each individual. Place one hand on both eyepiece tubes and gently move them in or out from each other until you see a single image with both eyes.

d. Adjust the diopter to adjust the focus for individual viewing.

e. Turn off the power switch before connecting the power cord located on the side of the microscope. The Vision Scopes are equipped with an upper and lower illumination system. The upper light is a variable inten- sity halogen light and the lower light is a fluorescent light (Excluding model T-2400). The switch for the light is a three position switch so that the upper light can be on, or the lower light can be on, or both lights can be illuminated (Excluding model T-2400).

f. Use the dimmer switch located on the side to adjust the transmitted light (Excluding model T-2400).

BULB REPLACEMENT (For T-2200 series & T-2600)

a. Before changing the top illuminator bulb, make sure that the power switch is off and the power cord has been disconnected from the main supply. If upper lamp has been on for some time, the housing and bulb could be hot. Use caution when changing the bulb.

b. Using Philips screwdriver, remove the four screws that hold on the feet.

c. Remove the bottom plate from the unit.

d. Grasp the bulb and gently pull the bulb from the socket. Replace with new bulb by pushing bulb into socket.

e. Using a soft cloth, clean bulb to remove finger prints or oil after installation to insure long life.

f. Replace the bottom cover. Screw the four feet into position at each corner of the base.

BULB REPLACEMENT (For T-2400)

Replacement of Bottom Light Source a. Unplug the microscope from the wall outlet.

b. With microscope facing you insert small slotted
