1 Placing the Specimen
#The dimensions of the slide glass should be 26 x 76 mm with thick-
ness of 0.9 to 1.2 mm, and the cover glass should have thickness of
0.17 mm.
#When observing very large specimens, remove the slide holder and
place the specimen directly on the stage.
Microscopy with Double-Slide Holder (Fig. 14)
1. Turn the coarse adjustment knob @ to lower the stage.
2. Open the spring-loaded curved finger ² on the slide holder and place
one or two specimen slides on the stage from the front.
3. After placing the sides as far as they will go, gently release the curved
finger.
Microscopy with Single-Slide Holder (Fig. 15)
The specimen side can easily be placed by sliding it into the slide holder
from the front.
Using an Oil Immersion Objective
Adsorption of immersion oil can cause the specimen to drift. In such
cases, it is recommended to use the optional BH2-SCB-3 specimen clip
³ for oil immersion objectives. (Fig. 16)
Using an Oil Immersion Condenser
It may be effective to use the optional U-SVRO (right-hand knob) or U-
SVLO (left-hand knob) slotted stage which prevents close contact be-
tween the specimen and stage.
Examining a whole specimen
Use one of the thin slide holders listed below that cause less interference
with the objectives*.
· U-HRD-4 · U-HLD-4 · U-HLS-4
* The applicable objectives are ones with 40X or less magnification (except
Apo series).
