Zusammenfassung:	The problem addressed by the invention is that of simplifying a conversion of the gutter system of an IS machine, for example, from double forming operation to triple forming operation and vice versa. This problem is solved in that a guide plate assembly (80) is provided in the course of the sliding path for molten glass drops, which guide plate assembly consists of a first assembly, which is composed of an elongate base (26) intended to be fastened to a scoop beam (21) and of supporting segments (29, 30) attached to said base, and a second assembly, which is composed of a guide plate unit (22) designed as a direct support of guide plates (42) and intended to be mounted on the first assembly. A conversion in the aforementioned sense can be limited to a replacement of said second assembly, whereby a significant reduction in assembly activities and set-up activities can be achieved.
