This is description of this part:
Central unit of the Reichert-Jung Ultracut E ultramicrotome, model 701701.
This is exactly the same instrument that was also sold under the name Leica Ultracut E. Reichert-Jung microtomes were also marketed by American Optical (AO / AO-Spencer) — however, they are still the same instrument.
This page shows the central unit of the ultramicrotome. It is currently still complete and has not yet been dismantled for parts. In the future, this instrument will serve as a donor of spare parts for repairing other ultramicrotomes.
