  We implement a simple method for fast and precise delivery of ultracold atoms
to a microscopic device, i.e. a Fabry-Perot microcavity. By moving a single
beam optical dipole trap in a direction perpendicular to the beam axis with an
acousto-optical deflector, we transport up to 1 million atoms within 100$\,$ms
over $1\,$cm. Under these conditions, a transport efficiency above $95\%$ is
achieved with only minimal heating. The atomic cloud is accurately positioned
within the microcavity and transferred into an intra-cavity optical lattice.
With the addition of a secondary guiding beam, we show how residual sloshing
motion along the shallow axis of the trap can be minimized.
