− the trackball or
− the joystick
can be used.
3.37.1 Assembling and connecting 75x50 mot. CAN mechanical stage with coaxial drive
On delivery, the mechanical stage has a transport lock. This should be removed before attaching
the stage, as otherwise the mechanical stage could be damaged.
• Unpack the mechanical stage and remove the transport lock (Fig. 70/2).
• Slide the stage plate (Fig. 70/1) forwards and fasten coaxial drive (Fig. 70/4) to the underside of the
stage using two screws (Fig. 70/5).
• Place mechanical stage (Fig. 70/1) onto the stage carrier so that the holes in the underside of the
mechanical stage coincide with the through holes of the stage carrier.
• Using the angled Allen key (AF 3), screw four screws (Fig. 70/6) from the bottom into the underside of
the stage, with the shorter screws being inserted in the front holes.
