There could be a few reasons why your can opener is not working correctly. One common issue is that the blade may be dull and need to be sharpened. Another possibility is that the gears inside the can opener may be worn out and need to be replaced. Lastly, make sure you are using the can opener on the correct side of the can, as it is designed to only open cans from one direction.
This is likely due to a dull blade on the can opener. We recommend sharpening the blade or replacing it with a new one. It is also important to clean the blade after each use to prevent buildup of metal shavings.
If the handle on your can opener is slipping, it may be due to loose screws. Try tightening the screws on the handle to see if that resolves the issue. If not, the gears inside the can opener may be worn out and need to be replaced.
To clean your can opener, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth after each use. Do not submerge the can opener in water, as this can damage the internal gears. If necessary, you can also use a small brush to remove any food debris from the blade and gears.
No, we do not recommend putting your can opener in the dishwasher. The high heat and powerful water jets can damage the internal gears and cause the can opener to malfunction. It is best to hand wash your can opener with warm soapy water and dry it thoroughly before storing.
