Hi Andrew,

I worked on different cryostats and I have memories of chuck going up. 

The section is cold and sturdy and I would just let it follow the chuck up as it is still attached to it. Then pull down, touch it to the knife so it sits there (it gets attached at the bottom) and pick it up. It is a bit annoying, but you get used to it. In your case, you will pay a fortune for service with no guarantee that the unit will work the way you want it. Who knows what lese will go wrong in the process...
