A grindstone having a vacuum system is applied to a pin chuck stepper. The vacuum system has a vacuum tube attached on the edge of the grindstone. When the grindstone moves on a pin chuck stage on the pin chuck stepper, the vacuum tube vacuums the pin chuck stage to free particles on the pin chuck stage.
