An optical-acoustic micromanipulator with a focused laser beam is considered. A spatial distribution of the potential averaged radiation pressure force of a micromanipulator is obtained. It is shown that in the exciting laser radiation acoustic field of a gas microbubble will tend to move toward the center of the laser beam waist.
