The thick samples or metal samples can be observed with
following methods.
· Lower the stage holder mounting position:
The sample with the height up to 65 mm can be observed.
(Note, if the right hand control 150 mm x 100 mm stage
(U-SIC64) is combined, the sample height is up to 63 mm.)
For procedures to lower the the stage holder mounting
position, see "Removing the stopper of the stage holder"
(page 95)
· Attach the height adapter (BX3M-ARMAD) to the
microscope frame:
The sample with the height up to 105 mm can be
observed.
(Note, if the right hand control 150 mm x 100 mm stage
(U-SIC64) is combined, the sample height is up to 103 mm.)
If the clamping screw
a
of the stage holder is loosened,
the stage falls. Be sure to hold the stage firmly while
loosening the clamping screw.
Hold the stage surely and loosen the clamping screw

Place the sample on the stage plate or the holder plate before
observation.
· If the sample is not flat and/or parallel, the reflected light
does not return to the objective and you cannot perform the
observation.
· If you observe the large-size sample, remove the stage plate
and place the sample on the stage directly.
· When using the wafer holder plate, turn the wafer holder using
the knob
a
.
· When using the glass holder plate, you can observe with
the transmitted light illumination. The BX53MTRF-S system
is required for the observation with the transmitted light
illumination.
