6. Assembly
Note:
For thicker specimens (Leica DM6000 M) the
stage can be set to a correspondingly lower
level.
Caution:
This changes the pre-set focus position and the
lower threshold. Both positions have to be set
again. See 8.3. Focusing,

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 (5.1).
• Using the condenser height adjuster (5.2), turn
the condenser holder completely upwards,
i.e. as close to the stage as possible.
• Loosen the stage clamp (5.3) slightly.
• From above, set the stage clamp onto the
dovetail guide (6.2) 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 (6.1).
