How do I use this can opener?
I get this question often and it's amazing how many people are so surprised the first time they try it. Here are the instructions if you need help.
- Step 1: Open handles. Attach can opener parallel to top of can aligning arrow on the right side to the rim. Be sure the cutting mechanism fits snugly against the side of the can. Close handles.
- Step 2: Turn knob clockwise. After a full circle around the edge of can, you will feel the resistance drop. Can is Open STOP TURNING.
- Step 3: To release, turn knob slightly counter-clockwise and open handles.
- Step 4: Use the Lid Gripper (small metal pliers on right side of can opener) to easily lift lid from can.
