Remove the stage carrier

To screw in the objectives and insert the condenser and, if required, the DIC slider, it is recommended to
remove the stage carrier. It is not necessary to remove the modules which have already been mounted,
such as mechanical stage, filter mount or SENARMONT polarizer, from the stage carrier.
Proceed as follows:
• Hold stage carrier (2-4/1) with your left hand.
• Use your right hand to loosen the clamping
screw (2-4/3) by 5 turns.
• Swing the stage carrier to the left in its
horizontal position until it glides out of the
dovetail mount (2-4/2) on the right.
• Then remove the stage carrier from the stand
by pulling it to the front and place it on the
table in such a way that toppling is avoided.
