Working with the STS in
combination with the Cool-Cut
Two different transfer surfaces for the transfer
bridge on the disposable blade carrier TE are
included in the standard equipment
Depending on the operation with or without a
Cool-Cut, these transfer surfaces must be cut
appropriately. They must be placed via a screw
onto the transfer bridge. For this, use the
attached screwdriver (see standard equipment,
part
2-7).
Note:
The short transfer surface is used in
combination with the Cool-Cut. The
long one for the STS solely.
When working with combination STS and Cool-
Cut, both additional instruments must be
attached to the rotary microtome in the
following order:
First, the Cool-Cut must be fastened to the
specimen holder via eccentric lever as a
conventional specimen clamp.
Then insert the special disposable blade
carrier TE for the STS onto the dovetail guide
of the rotary microtome and fix it.
Afterwards, install the STS with water bath
from the front onto the rotary microtome.
As described in part 4-3, sections can be
generated with combination of instruments.
