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).
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.
