The working screw is detachably connected in non-rotary manner to the feed screw. Between the feed screw and working screw is provided a precutting device and a split pressure housing surrounding the working screw is pivotably held on the housing. On a discharge-side end section of the pressure housing is detachably held a block cutter set, which alternately has coaxially arranged rotary and stationary cutting elements. The rotary cutting elements being located on a knife shaft connected in detachable, non-rotary manner to the working screw. The stationary cutting elements are braced with locking screws between an adaptor plate to be fixed at the discharge-side end section of the pressure housing and a support element, in which an end section of the knife shaft is mounted in rotary manner in the support element.
