IsoPro™ Motorized Cross-stage: Assembly

Basics

The transmitted light bases of the TL series (TL BFDF, TL RC™, TL RCI™) are supplied with an installed extension plate. The selected stage (IsoPro™ cross-stage or standard stage 10 447 269), and the focusing drive will have to be mounted later.

The motorized cross-stage is a sensitive preci- sion instrument. During installation, avoid subjecting the stage to impact or severe vibra- tions.

1.Unpack the cross-stage from the transport packaging and position it on the transmit- ted-light base.
