Dear valued customer,

ank you for buying a ermo Scientic instrument.

Before using the instrument you purchased, please read these operating

instructions carefully to familiarize yourself with the proper operation

and functions. To avoid risks to the operator and technical damage to

use (page 11). Any other use of the instrument is considered improper!

All warranties and guarantees would then be null and void.

is Operation Manual was specially written for the routine user work-

ing with the Rotary Microtome HM355S. e chapters contain useful

and important information and should be considered during the daily

routine work.

Only skilled or specially trained personnel should operate the micro-

tome and perform such tasks as clamping the specimens, trimming and

rst-cuts, sectioning and transferring sections onto a slide. e safety

instructions given in this manual, the regular safety standards as well as

the regulations and hygiene measures of your respective lab should be

strictly observed.

Please keep this Operation Manual near to the instrument for later

consultation.

is Operation Manual will be supplied together with each instrument.
