Inserting The Cut-Off Wheel Or Arbor For Polishing Foil Carrier; Adaptor For Specimen Holder - Leica EM TXP Operating Manual

The miller is enclosed by a protective casing. A magnetic switch allows the miller to
operate only when it is closed. A brake function of the motor ensures the miller stops
as quickly as possible when the cover is opened.
Do not manipulate inside the protective chamber with any magnetic tool or
while wearing magnetic decoration while the instrument is connected to the
mains.
Do not use the diamond miller for trimming of:

glass or glass fibre enforced material since this will physically damage
the diamond miller

material containing iron, cobalt, nickel, manganese, chromium,
tungsten, tantalum, titanium and zirconium as it will result in the
cutting edge wearing out very quickly.
