USING YOUR KAMBROOK ESSENTIALS CAN OPENER
1.Before use, always ensure that the cutter assembly and magnetic lid holder are correctly positioned (See Fig 1).
Fig 1
The cutter assembly fits into the keyhole opening at the top of the Essentials Can Opener, above the drive wheel. Ensure that the post is pushed all the way into the keyhole and that the control lever is pressed firmly against the Essentials Can Opener body. Position the magnetic lid holder up or down until it is in a horizontal position (Fig 1).
2.Insert the two pin plug into a 230/240 volt power outlet and turn the power on.
3.Hold the control lever in the upright position. Position the can under the support bar so that the rim of the can rests on top of the drive wheel, tilting the can at a slight angle towards the main body of the unit (Fig 2).

4.Whilst holding the can, firmly press the control lever down, piercing the lid of the can.This holds the can and starts the cutting action. Ensure the magnetic lid holder is in contact with the lid of the can.
5.When the can begins to turn, it is no longer necessary to hold down the control lever.
6.When the can is fully open, the Essentials Can Opener will stop automatically.
7.To remove cans, support the can with one hand and lift the control lever with your thumb on your other hand.The lid will remain attached to the magnetic lid holder (Fig 3).

CAUTION : Be careful when removing the lid from the magnet, as the cut edge is sharp.
Dented/damaged cans: Occasionally, badly dented cans will cause the Essentials Can Opener to stall. If this happens, grasp the dented can and guide it through the cutting action manually until the damaged areas are open.
Jammed cans:To continue opening a can that has become jammed, raise the control lever and release the can. Begin cutting the can again in a new position on the can lip.
