02 Section thickness range and repeatability
03 Specimen orientation and blade-holder compatibility
04 Operator safety, cleaning, and service support

Evidence to request

— Section-thickness verification
— Safety interlock and handwheel-lock test
— A dimensioned drawing with service clearances
— A declared utility and connection schedule
— A measurable factory and site acceptance procedure
— Operation, cleaning, and preventive-maintenance documents
