Specimen and Stage
1
Round-holed and long-holed rings
When using a small container such as φ 35-mm
Petri dish, always attach the supplied round-holed
ring to the stage. Using the long-holed ring instead
may result in the dish falling through the opening.
Attach the long-holed ring to the stage when using
relatively large containers, such as microplates.
2
Observing suspended cells
When observing suspended cells in the container, it
is necessary to set the objective closer to the
container than usual in order to achieve proper
focus. If the objective is switched while set this
close, it may strike the edge of the container. Be
sure to first lower the objective before rotating the
revolving nosepiece when it has been set close like
this.
3
Using the mechanical stage
For details on attaching the mechanical stage, see
P.37.
Turning the upper knob of the mechanical stage
moves the stage back and forth while turning the
lower knob moves it right and left. Take care not to
bend the specimen holder frame as it is coupled
with a thin plate.
96-hole plates can be directly inserted into the
specimen holder frame. Insert other containers into
the specimen holder frame using the assorted
specimen holders.
