5.2 General description
The Leica SM2000R is a manually operated sliding microtome.
The micrometer feed system is located in an enclosed housing. The microtome has
maintenance-free cross roller bearings. Lubricating is therefore not required.
The knife holder can be mounted in any of the four mounting positions on the knife
sledge. The knife holder is designed to accommodate both conventional microtome
knives or a disposable blade holder and has an integrated knife guard. The knife or
disposable blade holder does not need to be removed for clearance angle adjust-
ment.
The microtome can be fitted with a standard specimen clamp for paraffin blocks or a
universal cassette clamp.
The Leica SM2000R was designed to conform with the directives of the European
Union and manufactured using most up-to-date quality control procedures certified
under DIN EN ISO 9001.
