Maintenance
The eyepieces and objectives on VanGuard Microscopes are coated. They should never be wiped while dry as any dirt or dust will scratch the coating. The surfaces
should either be blown off with an air canister, or blown and cleaned with an air-bulb and camel-hair brush. It is recommended to then use a lens cleaner. Apply with
a cotton swab for a minimum of wetting, then wipe the surface clean with a quality lens tissue. Xylene, since it breaks down the bonding material holding the lenses,
should never be used as a cleaner. Periodically your VanGuard Microscope should be fully serviced by a qualified service technician.
For information about parts, accessories, or service -- contact your dealer directly
or contact VanGuard Microscopes at 1-800-423-8842.
