These housings, the disk, and the fixing apparatus can be disassembled from one another. The upper housing can be detached from the lower housing by releasing the connecting apparatus. The manually operated cutter disk can be lifted and removed from the lower housing. The lower housing also can be disassembled from the fixing apparatus, which has a sucker member operated by a lever.
