How does the lid lifter work? (I've lost the instructions.)

Use the two little nibs at the bottom of the can opener (near where the opener itself is) to pinch the top edge of the can and lift off the lid.

If you find out how, let me know, please. I've kept a pampered chef opener that doesn't work but does have a lifter. I'd like to toss it. I did have the instructions. Maybe I skipped that part.

This is the opener I have just click on this link in you tube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rA9IouJFha4 there is a video to show how all models work

Slide the top part across and position the two silver knobs on the lid, snap the top part back in place to lock the lid and remove.

It presses on. There's a little rubber seal and the lid just lifts on and off. We took the seal off of ours to make it easier to get on and off. The lid makes a little "clang" when it's removed.

The lid is held onto the lift mechanism by two phillips-head screws. They can be removed. The lift mechanism sticks out in the back about 2-1/4". It is held on by similar screws and could also be removed. (I don't know what would be the consequences for the foot-pedal in the front.) But why pay for all this engineering that you aren't going to use?

Metal lid lifter. Bought it at same time I bought Dutch oven. Made corn bread in it this weekend. Works great and the lifter not only works on the lid but also the DO so it's easy to rotate while cooking.

I still haven't figure it out you squeeze the one part together and then how do you lift the handle at the same time?

Can't help you friend. The instruction that came with mine , stated the lid is to remain open during operation. Sorry.

It should simply lift off the base when you pull. At least that is how the one that I have works.

Hi ErnestYes the instruction are on the top of the lid that comes with the funnel. This tool works very well

The lid can be tricky, but once you figure it out, it's very easy and it stays very air tight. The lid of course is removed by pressing in the middle of it until it pops and then it easily lifts off. To put the lid back on, put the lid on the counter top so the inside of the lid (with the plastic insert) is facing up. Press down on the middle of the lid, returning the center to its original position. Then you are able to put the lid back on the can and press and it will snap securely in its position. Hope this helps.

I grip the lower part of the tin and twist the lid while pulling up. It's a bit of a pain sometimes to get the lid off.

With the turner face-up (as you see in the picture) place the can under the opener. Now move the opener to the edge and grip the handles until you feel slight tug, then turn the thumb wheel. It will be so smooth in turning that you might think that it is indeed not cutting the lid. When the wheel turns freely, you're done. Next, there is a niche on the left side of the housing plate, (pliers) to lift off the lid! This opener is the best opener I have EVER used and far superior than any available in the marketplace! Don't give up, you'll be glad you didn't.

It does come with the power lid lift you have to splice and move some wires around to connect the power lift and the rain sensor but the directions are pretty clear how to do this. There is a little motor inside the housing that the knob is in. You can also pull the knob down to manually raise or lower the lid. Keep in mind that when using the power lift that it goes all the way open and closed it will not stop part way up or down the remote works great. My wife is short and could not reach the knob to open the vent she is pretty happy now!

I agree with the previous answer. The cover closes flush so the only usual way to open the lid is to step on the floor pedal. BTW, this is the best trash we have owned!

It has to be a jar with a lid--not a can. You hold the opener above the jar, parallel to the lid and press the black button. The opener will self adjust to the lid and once it is tight enough, it will twist the lid open. When you hear air escape from the jar, you will know the lid has been loosened. Release the black button and the arms of the opener will release the jar automatically.

The lid screws off then there is a sifter with a piece of plastic/tape over it - Peel back that tape/plastic & it comes right out of the sifters(&sometimes; maybe a little too much comes out so be careful!!) :)

you have to lift the lid.... this is not the item that they sent me. it was the item that i ordered... but they made a mistake... and i am soooooo glad they did. i got the one where you lift the coffee and reservoir out and pour the water in. much, much, much nicer than this model. i have both models now... this one i took to camp and when it goes, i will replace it with the one they sent me by mistake....

the top is sealed on and is not removable. I am not sure what lid puller refers to but the top has two screw in seals that are removed with the enclosed bung wrench.
