The clamping lever (66)
has a plastic handle that
can be turned into what-
ever position is best. To
do so, pull the handle up-
wards and turn it into the
desired position (Fig. 12).
It will then lock automati-
cally when released.
The knife holder SN (67)
has two bores (64) and
thus two different mount-
ing positions for different
sectioning requirements.
