I don't really see an opening at the slid line on the mouth piece, do we have to cut it open the first time? How do you cut it?

You need to place the mouth piece face to you, because my open vertical.. It's not visable. You need to squeeze both side until your fingers toucher each other. Do the same for the top & bottom. It should opens the mouth piece. Hope that help

No, there is an opening on the mouth piece already. It is slit down the middle of it.

It looks like the one piece should slit into two, but; rather than pulling that apart, you want to slide/rotate the entire peace to the one direction. There should be a top and bottom that slide opposing directions.

I used a small tooth pick to hold the valve open,, rolled up nicely completely deflated, hope this helps (just be careful not to damage the valve, pinch it and look inside, you'll see how it works,,, pinch it, slide the toothpick in and bingo)

I cut mine after the third cycle I used it. after the learning curve, I didn't feel it was needed. and some of the other answers say it is not used/needed to pull it out.

Yes, you need to carefully slip it off. It is gripped on tightly to the mouth piece, so be careful and remove it gently.

You have to turn the knob as you cut. Something like tighten, rotate, tighten, rotate.. repeat until the line is cut.

Press the button on either side of the handle and pull the handle out. if need be, use the handle side of a wooden spoon to push the core out. It is frustrating - I exerienced smae thing, minus the cut the first few times I used mine. Best wishes to you!

I think I found it on google, but what I did was drop front of track set it on short ladder. Took end off of track pulled out old one. Then I slid new one in place then activated opener to open. It sucked it right in. The you need to put back to gether. Then you have to make adjustments for open and close positions. Took about 30 minutes.

There is a cutter with the machine. Lay the roll in the top where indicated in the manual; then lift up a plastic bar before cutting & pull out the roll to how long you need. Fold down the plastic bar & put light pressure on it to hold the sheet where you want it. Slide the cutter across and voila! You have a nice clean cut. The only annoyance I've discovered when doing the vacuum sealing is sometimes if the food inside is a little heavy or bulky, I have to slightly raise up the bag where the food is to get the vacuum to work (there is a cancel button in case you need to cancel). There are very good directions in the manual...with a little practice you'll be a pro in no time.

The bite valves come sealed, so you need to either push your thumbnail into the top to break the seal, or roll it between your fingers until you see it open up.

I took the guard out. Cuts great!! The dispenser will slip and slide when trying to use it. There is a fix for that. Wraptastic slip fix kit. Go to www.jbgizmo.yolasite.com or check it out on ebay. Hope this helps.

Hi Bonnie, if you look at the cutter with the blade and screw side towards you you can see a clear tab above the screw. Make sure your blade is closed, remove the screw turning counter clockwise and then the clear tab can be seen right underneath the screw hole. You push the tab towards the area where the blade opens. I wanted to send you a picture of the instructions but I can't attach it. If you want to you can email me at terryr915@yahoo.com. Terry

Mine came with instructions. It said to thread the rope through the the small plastic piece. Then, push the piece into the inside of the front teeth position of the mouthpiece between the top and bottom plates. Boil the mouthgaurd for (I think) 30 seconds, then pull out by the rope and bite down hard for 10 seconds. Rinse in cool water, remove rope and you're done.

You want to make sure the rounded metal bit and the squarish bit with the rubber cap are on the same side. Then you fit one one end into the hole in the side of the mouth and squeeze the other end into the opposite side.

You have to push up on it gently, try to slide it so that the front inside lip can come down and then slide the whole thing out. If you do it right it takes 15 seconds.

You do not cut an opening. You take a section out of the downspout and insert the diverter. This diverter did not move much water into my barrel and I am replacing it with one from a different manufacturer.
