 Only loosen the middle screw. Do not take out the screw completely (it is easy to loose). Be gentle with the screw. It is a standard right-handed screw (clockwise will tighten). Don't over tighten. It should be just tight enough so the tip doesn't fall out. When loosening/tightening, make sure the Phillips screw driver is fully seated in the head of the screw to avoid striping the head.
-The two images below show a tip that is pushed too far underneath the clamp, and a tip that isn't pushed far enough under the clamp. In these configurations, it took a drive amplitude of 300 mV to get the tip to oscillate. The oscillation amplitude drifted by > 10% over a 10-minute time scale.
+The two images below show a tip that is pushed too far underneath the clamp, and a tip that isn't pushed far enough under the clamp. In these configurations, it took a drive amplitude of > 300 mV to get the tip to oscillate with 1 V amplitude. Moreover, the oscillation amplitude drifted by > 10% over a 10-minute time scale.
