4-3 Stage (for the BX Series)
1 Placing the Slide-Glass Specimen
(Figs. 23 & 24)
· The dimensions of the slide glass should be 26 x 76 mm with
thickness 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. 23)
1. Press the ESCAPE button to let the objective escape in the raised
position.
2. Open the specimen holder clamping lever @ and place the specimen
slides on the stage by sliding each slide from the front.
3. After placing the slides as far as they will go, gently release the clamping
lever.
Microscopy with Single-Slide Holder (Fig. 24)
The specimen slide can easily be placed by sliding it into the slide holder
from the front.
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
When an objective with a working distance (WD) below 0.5
mm (see page 38) is used, the objective may interfere with the
specimen holder during whole-slide microscopy.
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 between the
specimen and stage.
} The stages for the BX series can be used by using the BX3-STAD stage adapter.
If the stage fixing pillar is installed on the microscope frame, remove it.
