2.1.10 MOTORISED ADVANCE/REWIND (where applicable)
FIG 12
Warning:
Do not
operate the rewind motor when the cutting arm is in motion.
Only operate the rewind motor with the cutting arm at the rest
position. The advance motor may be operated when the cutting arm
is in motion. Operating outside these parameters can cause damage
to the mechanical components of the instrument.
Motorised Specimen Advance
1 With the specimen in place set the specimen thickness control to 0µm
2 Fully rewind the specimen.
3 Adjust the position of the knife carriage with knife to specimen clearance set to a minimum
(refer to section 2.2.2 to install a knife and for recommended knife angle).
4 Lock the knife carriage.
5 Begin advance, with cutting arm fully up, by
’toggling’ the Advance switch whilst rotating the
handwheel. The longer the switch is pressed the thicker the section. If the Advance switch is
pressed for more than 1.5 seconds, a faster advance of the specimen is achieved.
Motorised Specimen Rewind
1 To fully rewind specimen,
’toggle’ the Rewind switch for a minimum of 1.5 seconds and
release. The feedscrew will automatically stop when fully rewound.
2 To stop the specimen rewinding during the period,
’toggle’ the Advance switch and release
immediately.
For small rewind increments, quickly
‘toggle’ the Rewind switch.
2.1.11 HANDWHEEL
On instruments without /MR or /MR(S) the
handwheel is fitted with a locking lever
which locks the wheel (and therefore the
specimen arm) in a variety of positions.
Where /MR or /MR(S) is fitted, leave the
specimen arm in the top position before
switching off motor. The arm and handwheel
can now be locked in position by pushing in
the connecting rod knob.
For safety, the handwheel MUST BE LOCKED whenever a specimen is being fitted,
manipulated or removed.
