LKB Bromma 2128 Ultratome Microtome System, Ultramicrotome and Controller

Description

LKB Bromma 2128 Ultratome Microtome System
For sale- an LKB Bromma 2128 Ultratome Microtome System.
Comes with both the main microtome unit and the controller as pictured.
Microtome is equipped with the standard Olympus Stereozoom microscope as you can see.
I don’t know how to operate this thing, so it may just be a case of operator error, but I think it may need some work.
If you press the Arm Drop button it will do just that, but then seems reluctant to do it again unless you turn the controller off and back on again.
Just does not seem responsive to the controls in general.
The large multi-pin connector that attaches to the back of the control unit is broken (pictured), but it looks like the wiring is intact, so I don’t know if that is the culprit or not.
The overall condition of the ultramicrotome is very good, so I would expect that it is worth refurbishing.
I am selling it for parts or repair, so there should be no need to return it, and given the weight I don’t see that being practical anyway.
Please check out my other listings for more interesting lab, test, and optical equipment.
Check back often!
Sold as is, as described, as pictured.
Potential buyers are asked to please make sure you have read the listing carefully, and understand what you are buying.
Ebay’s condition codes for used items, which I am now required to select from, might imply a degree of functionality that my limited time, knowledge, and facilities do not allow me to ascertain.
If the functional condition of the item is known it will be stated as such in the listing.
Unless a warranty is specifically offered returns are not accepted regardless of any implied functionality.
You are also encouraged to visit my “ME” page, where my terms, conditions, and philosophy of doing business are outlined.
I don’t think anything there is outside the bounds of normal e-commerce, but they are binding on the transaction.
Shipping will be motor freight on a pallet unless you would like to come pick it up.
I would estimate the shipping weight at around 200 pounds.
I would estimate the freight cost for that at between 5 and 0 to the east and west coast respectively.
Residential deliveries, deliveries that require liftgates, deliveries to the boonies, and deliveries to schools or universities will all be more because it takes longer for the carrier to get the job done.
Shipping will be via Old Dominion Freight Lines, which has done a consistently good job getting my shipments where they are going without roughing them up.
I will be happy to quote you for the shipment, but I need to know the zip code, residential or commercial, and whether a lift gate will be required.
If you would prefer to use another carrier that’s fine .
It will be shipping from a warehouse with a loading dock in zip code 23093, but I do not live there!
I require pickup confirmation the day before and your carrier must provide an emailed printable copy of the Bill of Lading so that there is paperwork available for the driver to sign when he gets there.
The BOL should have all the info filled out when I receive it, blank copies are unacceptable.
I can ship this to Canada via Old Dominion, but they do not offer customs brokerage services, so you would need to have your own customs broker lined up before it shipped.
