Damage is possible when contacting the specimen stage
When using an inverted microscope, the illuminator arm must be swung
back before the system start and LAS X start because the stage can
damage the condenser, the objective or the specimen during
initialization.
Objective damage is possible when contacting the specimen stage
When using an upright microscope, the specimen stage must be moved
down before the system start and LAS X start because it could come into
contact with the objective during initialization and damage the objective.
Observe the user manuals for external lasers
