Adjust the grid-box using a pair of tweezers
and the grid with the y and x movement of
the manipulator in order to position the grid
above an empty recess of the grid-box.
Lower the forceps slowly until the grid is
placed in its position of the grid-box.
Open the forceps to release the grid.
To use a new grid take out the forceps and warm it up as long as the forceps
is dry. To speed up the process a second forceps is recommended. Or
another possibility is to load the second grid holder with empty grids and
place it in the chamber. If a new grid has to be inserted into the forceps
exchange the grid-boxes and pick up the empty grid using the micrometer
gauges of the micromanipulator. In this case the forceps can remain in the
cryochamber and will not ice up if moved out of the chamber.
