An arrangement responsive to the first signals moves the nozzle in a direction substantially parallel to the plane for moistening the flap at positions thereof. The nozzle comprises a hollow needle having a bore sufficiently small that the flow of liquid therethrough is substnatially independent of pressure applied to the liquid.
