3.4 Probe Shaft
A clamp attaches the probe shaft to the manipulator. The clamp has two holes for positioning the
clamp onto the manipulator, and you can rotate the clamp to the left or right of the manipulator
arm to give a total of four possible probe positions in the AP direction.
The Angle Two comes with a standard probe holder. Contact Leica Microsystems if you require
different probe holders (see “Contacting Leica Microsystems” on page 2).
Changing the Horizontal Position of the Probe Shaft
1. Unlock the clamp thumbscrew and remove it from the clamp.
2. Select the second hole to reattach the clamp screw
OR
Rotate the clamp 180° to select from two new positions.
If you rotate the clamp:
(i) Use a 3/32” Allen wrench to undo the probe shaft screw (see Figure 20).
(ii) Remove the probe shaft from the clamp.
(iii) Rotate the shaft 180° degrees and reposition it back through the clamp and tighten the
screw.
3. Screw the clamp back onto the manipulator.
Changing the Vertical Position of the Probe Shaft
1. Use a 3/32 inch Allen wrench to undo the probe shaft screw (see Figure 20).
2. Move the probe to the new position and retighten the screw when finished.
