4. Startup
There are two versions of the specimen holder
fixture – with and without specimen orientation.
Specimen orientation must be replaced only by
service ( see p. 50 ).
The specimen orientation allows for simple po-
sition correction of the specimen surface when
the specimen is clamped into place.
You can use the specimen holder fixture (10) to
hold all available accessory specimen clamps
(see Chapter 5.9.11 "Operation" ).
The basic instrument is equipped
at the factory with a directional
specimen holder fixture and a quick
change system for specimen clamps.
To do so, proceed as follows:
• Move the specimen holder fixture (10) to the
upper end position by turning the handwheel
(15) and engage the handwheel lock.
• To release the clamp, turn the Allen screw
(11) counterclockwise.
• Push the guide (13) of the specimen clamp
(12) from the left into the dovetail receptacle
(14) as far as it will go.
• To clamp the specimen clamp (12) turn the
Allen screw (11) clockwise as far as it will go.
