how do you remove the safety cap? Have tried and tried!

If i remember you don't. I think it's a built in safety feature. Try to get the area you want to remove the callus moist and soft with soap. Slide the handel/casing down where the sander part is covered and lightly pass the metal cutting side over the area a few times. Stop and look at the cutting blade. If you see saved skin then you know you are using the device right.

There's a white plastic thing right below the blade. it's to cover the sharp blade when not in use. Just push it out. :)

Try to push down and release. But don't bother it's a Terrible product. Easy to slip up, blade is also prone to rust and dullness.

I'm not really sure. I can't remember if I ever had a pinch cap or not. Usually to put it on I put one side in and then the other. I use the tabs to remove it. If easily clicks in. I hope that helps!

The top cap is a separate piece and larger in diameter than the stem mount dia. This means you can't take the stem off the top!! Just a mention as I didn't think of that. Not a huge issue, but something to be aware of

It's not that easy. I just tried to remove it for the first time and took me about 2 min. Best way seems to pry it off from the top down.

I use a flathead screwdriver and pry it off. There are 3 little pieces that hold it in. I found the first time that I need to be more aggressive than I thought was safe, but it came off with no damage. Just work the screwdriver around the outside metal ring and you'll get it off.

Yeah, it can be a bit stiff to unscrew, therefore making it less obvious. The tailcap is only the last few millimeters, so grip only that part. I needed a pliers with a towel around them (to prevent toolmarks) when my batteries *finally* died. I also had a little trouble figuring out where exactly to unscrew, so you're not alone.

You do not have to remove the cap. Th e cap is Punctured when you place the water container upside down on top of the cooling unit.

I looked online and I did not see anything regarding replacing just the cap, maybe call Brita at 1-800-24-BRITA to see if they can help you?

It looks a lot trickier than it actually is! Just turn the plastic tip about a quarter turn counterclockwise and then pull it straight outwards and off it gently comes. I remember the first time I tried it getting so frustrated that I finally grabbed some plyers but that was not a good idea as it will only break the tip and make the cap unusable - it is so easy if you just turn the tip back and just pull off. :)

push down to remove cover and slide it off. Let me know if you still have trouble.

I honestly don't recall how we got the cap off though I don't think it was a problem. If you read the directions all the way through, you'll see that if you leave the cap on, you won't be able to assemble it. Is there a YouTube video??

I'm sure you figured it out by now but the housing, at least for me, was tough to get off. Someone suggested a gear puller which would seem like a great way (maybe the proper way) to do it. Not having a gear puller, I wound up using a couple small wrenches as levers on either side of the housing and popped it off that way.

For Veronica - You were right don't take it off. The stool goes up and down with the orange cap on. :-) Apparently, in spite of the instructions they didn't put a "safety cap" on at all. Thanks for the reply.

The inner cap has a very small lip from the main collar that the cap screws onto...I found by working the lips apart I was able to use needle nose pliers to pull the inner cap off...and with the dented lid, I could reseal the can. I confess that I almost just punched a hole in the inner lid to pop it off....but didn't

Ah... :)You take a screwdriver that fits the screw and unscrew it as you would usually do (anti-clockwise).After a couple of turns it seems like the screw no longer holds the cover (the lid got a bit separated from the body), but it still won't come off, does it? :)Well, at this point you need to insert something thin (your fingernail?) in the crack between the cover and the body and just pull.Try pulling not from the center, but a bit closer to one of the edges - the cover latches to the body near the edges...

take off the cap and carefully cut off the tip...just enough so that it comes out
