Using the Stage Plate

When reflected light illumination is used, the stage plate can be placed

either the white or black surface facing up depending on which side

makes the specimen easier to view.

# To maintain the ESD performance, use the black surface of the SZ2-

SPBW stage plate.

# When transmitted light illumination is used, use the optional SP-C

transparent glass stage plate.

3. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the lowest magnification and rotate

the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.

4. Set the zoom adjustment knob ³ for the highest magnification and ro-

tate the focus adjustment knob | to bring the specimen into focus.
