To insert the sample holder move the stage of
the Lightsheet Z.1 system to the
Load position
via the Specimen Navigator tool (Fig. 28) in
the ZEN software (see CHAPTER 4 SYSTEM
OPERATION).

Open the upper system cavity door (Fig. 28/

Take the sample holder for capillaries or syringes by the sample holder disc with the capillary or the
syringe facing downwards (Fig. 29/

Insert the sample holder gliding the sample holder disc along the guide rails (Fig. 29/

correctly into a click position if the sample holder disc ball bearings lock into the three holes.

Notice the white line marking at the outer edge of the disc. It can be used as a reference point for
reorienting the sample holder disc once it was taken out.
