Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation CAUTION • Be sure to finish the preparation and inspection work described below before use. If any irregularity is suspected, do not use the instrument but see “Chapter 8 Troubleshooting” (page 75) to solve the problem. If irregularity is still suspected, contact Olympus. Damage or irregularity may compromise the correct functioning of the instrument and may result in more severe damage to the examined subject.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation Taking the instrument out of the case Remove the equipment in the order of: Main unit → Insertion tube → Control unit. Control unit Insertion tube Main unit Universal cable Remove the main unit. Remove the control unit and insertion tube. WARNING • Fully open the top cover when removing the main unit from the case. If the cover is not fully open, it can close unexpectedly and pinch your hand or cables.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation CAUTION • Place the case on a level surface so it is stable. • To open the top cover of the case, release the latch on the front of the case. • Do not pull the insertion tube with excessive force when taking it out of the cushioned slot. Otherwise, the insertion tube may be damaged. • When taking the control unit or main unit out of the case, never hold them by the insertion tube or universal cable. It may damage the instrument.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.2 1 Setting up the main unit The main unit can be used in any one of the three setup configurations shown below.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation CAUTION • Place the main unit on a level surface so it is stable. The main unit can tip over if it is not stable. • Do not place the main unit in overhead location. Doing so may result in the main unit falling and being damaged. • When suspending the base unit while using it, hook the handle someplace that can support its weight and where there is no danger of it falling.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation Using the handle The handle can be lowered from its storage position and freely adjusted within the range shown in the illustration below. When using the handle as a stand, you can adjust the angle for easy viewing. CAUTION • Take care not to pinch your hand or other objects when moving the handle.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.3 Preparing the power supply WARNING • Do not bend, pull, twist, crush or apply excessive force to the power cord of the AC adapter. Otherwise, a break in the power cord wires may cause a fire or electric shock. • Ensure that the power cord is normal before connecting it. Using a power cord with irregularities may result in an electric shock. • Be careful not to injury yourself when replacing the battery.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 4 Insert the battery so that the ribbon passes under it. This is so you can pull the ribbon to remove the battery. Ribbon CAUTION • When loading the battery, check to make sure the main unit’s battery contacts and the battery terminals are positioned correctly. • Never try to force the battery if it does not slide in easily. Check to make sure that the battery is positioned correctly and that there is no problem with its terminals.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation Supplying power from the AC adapter 1 2 Open the AC adapter connector cap. Connect the AC adapter to the AC adapter connector on the main unit. AC adapter connector cap 3 4 Ensure that the AC power cord is connected securely to the AC inlet of the AC power adapter. Plug the AC power cord securely into a power outlet. WARNING • Inspect the power cord before use and check for any signs of damage.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.4 Inspecting the insertion tube CAUTION • Be sure to hold the insertion tube by a position on the rear of the angulation section. Otherwise, the angulation section may be damaged. Inspecting the external appearance of the insertion tube 1 2 Check visually that the external finish of the complete length of the insertion tube and universal cable are free of irregularities such as deformation.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3 4 Check that there is no dirt or water on the insertion tube distal end. If dust or water is present, wipe them clean with a soft piece of gauze or a cotton swab, grasping at hard part of distal end. The best results may be obtained using the lens cleaning fluid provided in the lens cleaning kit. Check that the distal end of the insertion tube is not deformed or loose.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.5 Inspecting the side view mirror adapter (optional) (for IV8630M) WARNING • The distal end of the insertion tube may become hot due to the illumination light or the internal heating caused by electrical parts. Do not forget to turn off the light source before attaching or detaching the side view mirror adapter. Touching the distal end immediately after having turned off light source may cause burn on your skin.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 2 Check the bores connection diameters of the side of the insertion tube distal end, side view mirror adapter lock groove and side view mirror adapter, and that their screws are not deformed or have foreign objects attached to them. Attaching and detaching the side view mirror adapter CAUTION • If the side view mirror adapter cannot be attached or detached because its nut will not turn, stop using the equipment and contact Olympus.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation CAUTION • Do not use the side view mirror adapter with the green index. They cannot be attached correctly. • If the red index is not completely visible, you cannot insert the distal end of the insertion tube into or remove it from the side view mirror adapter. • The nut will fall off the mirror if it is loosened any further after the red index is completely visible (see below). If the nut comes off, it may be lost or the claws may be damaged.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 4 5 Lightly push the side view mirror adapter clockwise onto the insertion tube so that the second threaded section is engaged. Tighten the nut all the way until it is stopped. Make sure that the side view mirror adapter is securely attached. To detach the side view mirror adapter, reverse the attaching procedure. Inspecting the parts of the side view mirror adapter Check that the parts of the side view mirror adapter are not loosened.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.6 Inspecting the control unit and the universal cable 1 2 Check for irregularities such as damage or deformation to the external material, buttons, joysticks, and levers. Ensure that the universal cable is free of irregularities such as cuts and buckling.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.7 Inspecting the LCD monitor Inspecting the external appearance 1 Check that the LCD monitor is free of irregularities such as cracks on the screen. NOTE • The LCD panel is fabricated based on precision technologies. The LCD panel may contain pixels that do not light (visible as black dots) or light permanently (visible as bright dots), but this is not a defect or malfunction of the product.
Chapter 3 Preparation and inspection before observation 3.8 Mounting of the control unit on the main unit The control unit can be attached to the main unit as desired. It can be attached to the main unit for carrying and left attached to the main unit during observation.
