Each knife holder is equipped with a tightly
mounted knife guard (8, 9). This makes it possible
to cover completely the cutting edge in every
knife or blade position.

can be easily positioned via the two handles (7)
(Fig.

To cover the knife edge, push both cover strips
of the knife guard to the center.
Knife holder E/E-TC
The knife guard on knife holder E/E-TC consists
of a red foldaway handle (9). To cover the cutting
edge, fold the knife guard handle (9) upwards as
illustrated in

remain in the position shown at all
times, as otherwise isolated malfunc-
tions of the knife holder can occur.
