Dear Kathryn,
The retraction on the HM355E can be turned off by simultaneously pressing the "A" button and the button to the left of this (with the double arrow on it). The retraction light (yellow LED) will then go off. If the light still remains on turn the hand wheel once and it should go off confirming your action.
I have a copy of the user manual that I will send out to you.
Kind regards

Validation experts: are there any NSH , CAP and or other Histo reference or literature that I can reference on the above types of validations?
In our lab we will be using a some or a combination or all of these to comply with CAP validations standards of equipment, methods, protocols and key processes.
Need guidance on the separate methods.

Judith,
When you pick up your sections are you getting a lot of water trapped between the tissue and the slides. I have had that problem when getting a new lot number of slides before and had to change them out. The tissue wasn't actuall falling off rather then being pushed off after the water begins to heat up and expand forcing the tissue off. In this instance shaking the slide after picking up the tissue had no benifit either as this also caused the water to force the tissue off the slides.
