4.  While using a hexagonal screwdriver to keep 
the inner shaft from turning, screw in part B 
and then firmly mount it using set screws. 
 
  Notes on mounting 
When screwing in part B, make sure to keep part A 
from turning using a hexagonal screwdriver to 
avoid co-rotation. If part B is screwed in while part 
A is free to rotate, the rack of the stage might be 
damaged. 
 
 
1) Insert the hexagonal screwdriver into a hole 
on the side of part A. 
2) With the hexagonal screwdriver pressed in 
lightly, turn part B inside. 
3) Affix a set screw to the tip of the hexagonal 
screwdriver and screw it into each hole (2 in 
total) on the side of part B. 
5.  Mount the manual stage to the microscope 
main body. (See §7.7.1.)

  7.7.3    Removing a Fixing Tool of the Stage 
A fixing tool (L-shaped metal fitting) is attached to the stage and is used to affix the stage plate. Before 
removing the fixing tool, attach the stage to the microscope main body. (Tool for manual stage: 3 mm hex 
wrench, supplied with the microscope main body) 
1.  Loosen and remove the fixing screws on the 
bottom of the L-shaped metal fitting. 
For identification, a red circle sticker is affixed 
on the L-shaped metal fitting. Remove the two 
fixing screws by loosening them from the lower 
part of the stage using a hex wrench. 
2.  Remove the L-shaped metal fitting by 
loosening the two fixing screws on the side 
of the fitting. 
Remove the L-shaped metal fitting from the 
side of the stage by loosening the two fixing 
screws using a hex wrench.   
When removing the L-shaped metal fitting, hold 
it by hand to prevent it from dropping.
