Load the Crucible Holder with the prepared sam-
ple into the FDCS196 stage. Unscrew the Y
manipulator (the one screwed into the stage door)
so that when you close the door, the FDCS/CC
doesn’t push the crucible right off the edge of the
block and the silicon oil with it.
Open the door of the stage by unscrewing the
door thumbscrew. The FDCS/CC slides into the
brass housing located just inside the door. There
is a Sample Holder Ramp just before the silver
block which guides the crucible up on to the
block.
With one hand push the FDCS/CC and with the
other hand lift the edge of the crucible up the
ramp and over the drop of oil. When the drop of
oil is roughly in the centre of the crucible gently
lower the crucible on the block. Now close the
door of the stage and screw in the door locking
screw. This screw only needs to be finger tight.
Adjust the XY manipulators by a few turns in
both directions to spread out the oil underneath
the Quartz Crucible.
Use the XY manipulators to move the FDCS/CC
so the edge of the sample sits across the aperture
hole of the silver block. This makes visual loca-
tion of the sample easier once analysis starts.
