II. CAN OPENER DESCRIPTION
The Model 270 electric can opener, manufactured by the Edlund Company, is approved by
the appropriate certifying organizations. The model 270 can opener is a table-type opener
with a sculpted base to guide a full No. 10 can. All the external parts are manufactured of
stainless steel and other non-corrosive materials. The knifeholder, knife, drive gear and shield
can be removed easily without tools for replacement or cleaning.
The Model 270 operates at two speeds. The high speed is used for most can opening
operations. The low speed is intended for difficult to open cans. The operating speed can
be selected by positioning the rocker switch on the side of the opener to the speed desired.
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 opening a standard seven-inch high no. 10 can, slide the can
against the can opener sculpted front and drive gear. and pull the handle forward to its
locked-down position. Remove your hand from the can when the can opener starts turning
the can. The motor will start and the can will rotate until the lid is severed from the can,
after one full revolution. Raise the actuating lever to stop the opener.
If 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. After opening
the can, raise the lever and grasp the can simultaneously
CAUTION: SEVERED CAN LIDS HAVE SHARP EDGES. USE OF A PROTECTIVE
GLOVE OR TONGS IS ADVISED WHEN HANDLING LIDS.
