The legs of the guide frame are inserted into openings in the carrier plate. To secure the guide frame to the carrier plate, each opening has a recess starting at the lower edge of the carrier plate and which terminates at a bracket which is formed as part of the carrier plate. The legs are provided with foot parts which slide into the recess located beneath the respective bracket, causing a peg to snap into another opening in the carrier plate.
