Hello

 

Hoping someone might be able to help with this microtome issue. I have a 
problem with the block clamp on one of my Leica RM2255's. It has recently 
loosened up and it is now possible to move the clamped cassette from 
side-to-side when the clamp is shut. 

When I turn the bolt on the underside of the clamp it neither tightens up nor 
loosens off so there does not seem to be a way of taking the clamp apart any 
further.

 

Leica have suggested that I buy a new block clamp (£292) but it just feels like 
something that could be easily fixed, perhaps with a new spring? Has anyone had 
experience with this problem? 

 

Thank you
