Leica M series User Manual 3

Function of the Microscopes

The Leica M125 B and Leica M165 C B micro-

scopes, for which this User Manual has been

written, are designed for routine examinations

of cell and tissue cultures, liquids, and sedi-

ments. This includes examining specimens

taken from the human body for the purpose

of gaining information about physiological or

pathological conditions or inborn anomalies, or

testing for safety and compatibility for poten-

tial recipients, or for monitoring therapeutic

measures.

IVD

The above-named microscopes comply with

the Council Directive 98/79/EC concerning in

vitro diagnostics.

•The manufacturer assumes no liabil-

ity for damage caused by, or any

risks arising from, using the microscope for

other purposes than those for which they are

intended or not using them within the speci-

ﬁcations of Leica Microsystems CMS GmbH.

In such cases, the Declaration of Conformity

shall be invalid.

•These (IVD) instruments are not

intended for use in the patient environ-

ment deﬁned by DIN VDE 0100-710. Nor are

they designed to be combined with medical

Leica M125 B nameplate

instruments in accordance with EN 60601-1. If a

microscope is electrically connected to a medi-

cal instrument in accordance with 60601-1, the

requirements listed in EN 60601-1-1 shall apply.

Not suitable for examining potentially infec-

tious specimens. This type of instrument may

be operated by trained laboratory personnel

only.

modiﬁed, and we can oﬀer other accesso-

ries for use in clean rooms.

★The cleaning of glass surfaces and objec-

tives in particular should be carried out

exclusively as outlined in the brochure

"Cleaning of Microscope Optics". The infor-

mation can be downloaded at:

http://www.leica-microsystems.com/prod-

ucts/

. Select your product and go to the "Down-

load" page.

★For additional information, refer to page

56.

Servicing

★Repairs may only be carried out by Leica

Microsystems-trained service technicians.

Only original Leica Microsystems spare

parts may be used.

Safety Instructions

Description

★The individual modules fulﬁll the highest

requirements for observation and docu-

mentation of Leica stereomicroscopes of

the M series.

Intended use of instrument

★Leica Microsystems microscopes are opti-

cal instruments for improving the visibility

of objects or specimens through magniﬁ-

cation. Accessories such as optical acces-

sories, stands, illumination, cameras etc.

supplement the equipment conﬁguration.

Non-intended use

★Using the instrument in any way contrary

to the speciﬁcations in the User Manual can

lead to bodily harm and damage to objects.

Never use microscopes for in vivo examina-

tions or eye surgery if they are not expressly

intended for such use. Never install any

other plug or unscrew optical systems

and mechanical parts unless expressly

instructed to do so in the instructions.

The instruments and accessories described in

this User Manual have been tested for safety and

potential hazards. The responsible Leica aﬃliate

must be consulted whenever the instrument is

altered, modiﬁed or used in conjunction with

non-Leica components that are outside of the

scope of this manual!

Unauthorized alterations to the instrument or

noncompliant use shall void all rights to any

warranty claims as well as product liability and

the Declaration of Conformity.

Place of use

★Only use the instruments in closed, dust

free rooms and between +10°C and

+40 °C. Protect the devices from oil, chemi-

cals and extreme humidity. If using the

devices outdoors, protect them from dust

and moisture. Never use electrical devices

outdoors.

★Electrical components must be placed at

least 10 cm away from the wall and away

from ﬂammable substances.

★Avoid large temperature ﬂuctuations,

direct sunlight and vibrations. These condi-

tions can distort micrographic images, for

example.

★In warm and warm-damp climatic zones,

the individual components require special

care in order to prevent the build-up of

fungus.

Leica M series User Manual 8

Safety Instructions (continued)

Responsibilities of person in charge of

instrument

★These Safety Instructions must be available

at the workplace.

Ensure that:

★The M series stereomicroscopes and

accessories are operated, maintained and

repaired by authorized and trained person-

nel only.

★All operators have read, understood and

observe this User Manual, and particularly

the safety regulations.

Repairs, service work

★Repairs may only be carried out by Leica

Microsystems-trained service technicians.

★Only original Leica Microsystems spare

parts may be used.

★Before opening the instruments, switch oﬀ

the power and unplug the power cable.

★Avoid contact with powered electrical

circuits, which can lead to injury.

Transport

★Use the original packaging for shipping or

transporting the individual modules of the

Leica M stereomicroscopy series and the

accessory components.

★In order to prevent damage from vibrations,

disassemble all moving parts that (accord-

ing to the user manual) can be assembled

and disassembled by the customer and

pack them separately.

Integration in third-party products

★When installing Leica products into third-

party products, the manufacturer of the

complete system or its dealer is responsible

for following all applicable safety instruc-

tions, laws and guidelines.

Disposal

★Once the product has reached the end of its

service life, please contact Leica Service or

Sales about disposal.

★Please observe and comply with the

national and federal laws and regulations

that are equivalent to EC directives such as

WEEE.

Like all electronic devices, the micro-

scope, its accessory components and

consumables must never be disposed of with

general household waste.

Leica M series User Manual 9

Safety Instructions (continued)

Legal regulations

★Observe the generally applicable statu-

tory and country-speciﬁc regulations for

accident prevention and environmental

protection.

EC Declaration of Conformity

★Electrically operated accessories are

constructed based on the state of the art

of technology and are provided with an EC

Declaration of Conformity. See page 55

Health risks

Workplaces with stereomicroscopes facilitate

and improve the viewing task, but they also

impose high demands on the eyes and holding

muscles of the user. Depending on the dura-

tion of uninterrupted work, asthenopia and

musculoskeletal problems may occur. For this

reason, appropriate measures for reduction of

the workload must be taken:

Optimal arrangement of workplace, work

assignments and work ﬂow (changing tasks

frequently). Thorough training of the person-

nel, giving consideration to ergonomic and

organizational aspects.

The ergonomic design and construction of the

Leica M stereomicroscopy series are intended to

reduce the exertion of the user to a minimum.

Direct contact with eyepieces can be a potential

transmission path for bacterial and viral infec-

tions of the eye.

The risk can be kept to a minimum by using

personal eyepieces for each individual or

detachable eyecups.

Careful handling

★Exercise particular care when setting up

the instruments. If it is speciﬁed that two or

more people are required for setup, compli-

ance with this is mandatory.

★Never spill any liquids on electrical instru-

ments. This could cause the stereomicro-

scope and other equipment to become

electrically live and damage people and

instruments.

★Never clean instruments using corro-

sive cleaning agents or those containing

acetone. For detailed information about

care, refer to the User Manual for the instru-

ment.

★Check the power cables regularly. Defective

power cables can cause injuries.

★Wait for bulbs to cool oﬀ before changing

them. Touching hot bulbs can cause burns.

Leica M series User Manual 10

Safety Instructions (continued)

Light sources: safety regulations

★Light sources pose a potential risk from

glare. Therefore, lamps have to be operated

in closed housings and in installed condi-

tion.

★Never look directly into the beam path

(blinding hazard).

★Do not select a white, strongly reﬂective

background for the specimen.
