13. Use of the microscope in fluorescence (B-510FL, B-510LD1/LD2)
This section refers exclusively to the use of the reflected light fluorescence microscope.
For transmitted light operations, refer to this manual in sections 8-9-10 from page 11 to page 17.
13.1. Unpacking
The microscope is housed in a moulded Styrofoam container. Remove the tape from the edge of the container
and lift the top half of the container. Take some care to avoid that the optical items (objectives and eyepieces)
fall out and get damaged. Using both hands (one around the arm and one around the base), lift the microscope
from the container and put it on a stable desk.
Do not touch with bare hands optical surfaces such as lenses, filters or glasses. Traces of grease or
other residuals may deteriorate the final image quality and corrode the optics surface in a short time.
