5.1Stage

!Caution:

Before assembling the stage, make sure no ob- jectives are installed!

•Place the specimen holder on the stage and fasten it with the two screws (3.1).

•From above, set the stage clamp onto the dovetail guide (4.2) and push the stage down- wards until the upper end of the dovetail guide is tightly fastened to the upper end of the stage clamp.

•Firmly tighten the stage clamp (4.1).

•Using the condenser height adjuster (3.2), turn the condenser holder completely upwards, i.e. as close to the stage as possible.

•Loosen the stage clamp (3.3) slightly.

Note:

For thicker specimens (Leica DM4000 M) the stage can be set to a correspondingly lower level.
