Misaligned or unsecured blades will damage the peeler. This video shows how to properly align, adjust, and secure the blades http://victorio.info/apple-peeler-video.html Align the coring/slicing blade: The fork should be able to pass through the center of the blade with- out touching the sides.

Adjust peeling blade: The peeling blade works best when adjusted to about 1/8 inch past the head of the peeling arm. To adjust the peeling blade, loosen the wing-nut 1/2 turn. The blade can be moved forward to remove more peel, or backward to remove less peel.
