When it stops cutting is there a button to release the top; if not how is it released?

Terrible product. Will not stop! No off button. Easy to cut your hand. Beware!

The top attaches to the opener with a magnet. After opening simply grasp the lid and pull away from the magnet. If you stop the opener before it has gone completely around the can, the lid may not come away cleanly without a section remaining attached to the can.

Press the black button and the cutting mechanism will withdraw from the edge of the can. Sometimes I press it a couple of times before it does the reverse but the cutter will move so you can just lift the Zyliss up and off the can.

Yes, you push the same button when the cutting is done. It takes a second to stop and release.

Touch button to start, then touch button again to back up and release lid. Very sharp edge on lid and can!!! I've quit using it because of dangerous edges.

Push the little switch on the side down near the bottom of the blade and then close it..

Just remove the piece you cut, you don't want to lock it up again till you're finished with it for the day...

With your fingernail, separate the inner portion and press to the left and slip the blade downto close

No there isn't, which is a problem when you are using poison brush killer in it, so have a hand towel when releasing the pressure from the top handle mechanism, which is the only way the pressure can be released.

No. There is a small slider on the outside opposite the clip that you have to slide up to unlock the blade for closing. You can see it in the product picture.

There is piece of metal that snaps into place when the knife is opened. It is serrated near the end where it holds the blade. Depress this and the blade will close after pressing it towards the handle. Be careful!

You just pull it forward. But it can come completely off with the release of a button.

Yes the top can be taken off. I didn't try to take mine off, but if the wire is too stiff to bend and remove then wire cutters should snap it right off.

There is a small tab at the base of the blade and when the knife is closed sticks up above the back or spline of the closed knife. You simply put your fore finger on this tab and pull down with your finger. Very easy and fast almost like a switch blade if you flick the knife while pulling down on the tab.

No, No button. That would be illegal. It opens by itself after you put pressure on the blade. "Spring assisted opening"

No. The thumb button on the side of the knife releases the blade when pushed upward.

There is a lock on the handle. U push it to the side n carefully close the knife

Unless it is broken it should be relatively easy to close. Hold it blade away from you with the sharp edge up. Look in the handle, there should be a small metal tab in the middle of the handle that you would push over to the left to unlock the blade. This is a standard locking mechanism for many knives. Hope that helps!

Inside the handle, there is a metal stop that you push over allowing it to close. Love this knife at my job.

Once you press both the safety button and power button you can let up on the safety button....then, as long as you do not stop the cutting action, you only have to hold down the power button....I am a woman and have smaller hands.....works for me! This is the best hand clipper I have ever had...love it, despite all the obnoxious safety hoops a person has to jump thru these days.
