Voor elke handeling aan mes/wegwerpmesje en preparaat en voor elke preparaatwissel en in werkpauzes moet de messlede vergrendeld en de snijkant met de vingerbeschermer afgedekt worden.

Prior to any manipulation of the knife or specimen, or each change of specimen, and during breaks, always cover the cutting
edge of the blade/knife with the knife guard!

The knife sledge is locked in place using the locking knob (23) that
engages in the notch points on the bar (24), thus holding the knife sledge securely.

There is picture of the knife sledge as well
