Activating/deactivating the high-
performance focus
When a scanning stage (approx. weight: 4 kg) is
used, the high-performance focus must be
activated to protect the focusing drive.
Thus, specimens weighing up to 5 kg may be
placed on the stage for microscoping.
To activate/deactivate the high-performance focus,
proceed as follows:
•
Use the Z drive to move the microscope stage
into the lowest position possible.
•
Use ball-headed screwdriver SW 3 (3-28/
2
) to
screw the two screws (3-28/
1
), located to the
right
and
left on the stand, in or out until they
reach their respective end positions.
Screws screwed out: High-performance focus is
activated.
Screws screwed in:
High-performance focus is
deactivated.
