on the back, they are inserted in the same way described here using the example of the
cassette clamp.

There are two versions of the specimen holder
fixture, one with and one without specimen ori-
entation, which are interchangeable.
The specimen orientation allows for simple posi-
tion correction of the specimen surface when the
specimen is clamped into place.
You can use the quick clamping system (64) to
hold all available accessory specimen clamps
(for more information, see
accessories").
To do so, proceed as follows:
• Move the specimen head (60) to the upper end
position by turning the handwheel (12) and
engage the handwheel lock.
• To release the clamping system, turn the
screw (61) of the quick clamping system (64)
counterclockwise using an Allen key No. 4 (71).
• Push the guide (63) of the universal cassette
clamp (62) from the left into the quick clamping
system (64) as far as it will go.
• To clamp the cassette clamp turn the screw
(61) clockwise as far as it will go.
