I. SPECIFICATIONS
II. CAN OPENER DESCRIPTION
Underwriters Laboratories, Inc and Canadian Standard approve the model
203/266 electric can openers manufactured by the Edlund Company Inc., in the
115-volt configuration. The two models differ only in that the model 266 can
opener operates at a single speed while the model 203 can opener operates at the
normal speed and a slower speed so that it is easier to open smaller or difficult to
open cans.
The model 203/266 can openers are table-type openers with a weighted base to
offset the weight of a full No. 10 can. The external housing and cover are
manufactured of stainless tell, while the knife holder is made of nickel-plated cast
iron.
III. CAN OPENER OPERATION
To operate, plug the power cord into a grounded outlet with the same voltage as
listed on the back of the can opener. If you are opening a standard seven-inch high
no. 10 can, slide the can against the can opener drive gear and push the handle back
to its locked-down position.
The can opener motor will start after the can bead is captured between the knife and
drive gear and before the knife pierces the can. The can will start to rotate, and after
on full revolution the lid will be severed from the can. After the lid is completely
severed from the can pull the handle forward to stop the can opener motor. If for
some reason the lid is not completely severed or if the can is ejected from the gear,
consult the maintenance instruction and/or trouble-shooting guide later in this
manual.
To open a shorter can, the operator must support the can on his left or right hand,
place the cans top bead over the drive gear and push the handle back to it locked
down position so that the can is held firmly between the knife and gear. The
supporting hand should then be removed completely from the can until the can lid
us completely severed from the can. If the operator restricts the rotation of the can
by holding on to the can, the can opener may reject the can. After the can is opened
