Supplementary instruction manual V 1.2 07/2002
1. Important information
1.2 Designated use
The Leica SP2600 is designated to prepare milled
surfaces and thin slices of specimen materials
such as plastics and metals as well as of organic
materials (such as bones, teeth) in medicine, biol-
ogy and industry.
The Leica SP2600 ultramilling attachment is an
accessory which cannot be operated as a stand-
alone device but must be used in conjunction
with the Leica SM2500 sliding microtome de-
scribed in a separate instruction manual.
Specimen surfaces are milled with a rotating
spindle, equipped with either a pre- or a finishing
miller.
With each sledge stroke, the micrometer feed
mechanism of the Leica SM2500 lowers the mill-
er towards the specimen by the feed setting se-
lected.
The Leica SP2600 may be used only in conjunc-
tion with accessories and supplementary instru-
ments made by Leica.
If the instrument is used for any other than
the designated application, this will be
considered an improper use of the product!
