Household Repairs Doesn't work properly. Scrub cutting mechanism thoroughly under hot water to remove gummy food residue, grease, etc. This usually solves the problem. If it doesn't, check whether space between cutting wheel and cogged wheel is too wide for cans to be held securely. This space can be reduced by tightening nut found either on the front of the cutting wheel or on the shaft behind it.
