Appendix A Application-related notes and recommendations
A1.1 Leica specimen slide holders, output and coverslip magazines made of plastic
Leica plastic accessories are manufactured from special material and designed for long-term use.
Various factors, such as material-dependent aging, material fatigue conditioned by use, heat
and dirt can lead to the changes in the plastic.
Therefore Leica specimen slide holders and output magazines are among the after-sales parts
and listed under Optional Accessories ( refer to Chapter 9 ).
In order for the plastic accessories to be able to be used as long as possible, we have put to-
gether some notes, which are recommended for the following specimen slide holders as well
as output and coverslip magazines:
• Output magazine for 30 specimen slides (14 0478 39586)
• Output magazine for 20 specimen slides (14 0478 40117)
• Specimen slide holder for 30 specimen slides, Type Leica, plastic (14 0475 33750)
• Specimen slide holder for 20 specimen slides, Type Sakura, plastic (14 0474 33463)
• Specimen slide holder for 30 specimen slides, Type Leica, modified, plastic, for Varistain adapter
(14 0478 38029)
• Coverslip magazine for cover slips 40-60x24 mm (14 0478 39749)
• Coverslip magazine for cover slips 40-60x22 mm (14 0478 39748)
For the output magazines to function flawlessly, avoid deformation of the side panels of the
output magazines
• The output magazines must not be placed in solvent over a period hours (e.g. overnight)
( refer to Chapter 7.1 ).
• No drying after contact with solvent or water at temperatures over 100 °C and a long time
(e.g. overnight).
Never store Leica plastic accessories for a long time (for example, overnight for clean-
ing purposes) in solvent or at high temperatures!
