just rotate the gray circle counterclockwise with your hand, should be easy, not hard, if that doesn´t work, then the jaws that close on top, rotate them counterclockwise.

I do not know how to release it maybe try to unplug it for a couple of minutes then try it again it might help hope so

I purchased mine as a gift for my daughter. I take it the can is in position "crooked" as you describe it being "hung". I would uplug, and wiggle the can until it came loose. I opener is trying to do its job but can't because of the position of the can. that is my best guess based on the information available.

Be careful when you manipulate it. The cog wheels are plastic. I broke a couple of the teeth during manipulation and I had to buy a new one.

You may have to push the button on the base & manually turn the base a little. or the lid holder.

It is a little tricky but mine opens and closes. After inspecting it I see that as you may suspect, turning the handle right tightens it and left loosens it. Yours must be initially stuck. I bet if you can get it to open once you won't have any trouble the next time. ;)

Mine sticks as well. I pull straight up with force and it finally comes out.

You should be able to pull it back out. Maybe fish it out with a pair of tweezers?

use something and poke it it will bounce right out :)or just use your finger nail to push it down

When you hear a couple clicks while pulling it out you should be able to release and it will lock. Sometimes it takes a couple tries to get it in the right spot. It must be in the click stage to lock.

yes, it's fairly easy...just push button once to open can, then again to shut it off and then it detaches itself.

It has a hard plastic area that holds it in, it's tight I don't believe there's any way for it to slip out from top or bottom its hold is super tight you have to work to get it out its that tight

Open the lid, and at the base of the lid where it connects to the body, there's a small metal bar that is slid into a locked position in the body. While the lid is upright, gently guide the bar up, over, and past the little lock, and pull up. It should come right out.

I had the exact same problem! I finally just pulled the handle straight out with pretty strong force and it came out. Good luck.

Possibly with a little practice. The only obstacle i see is trying to put the can under the bar and pushing down on the lever in one motion. After the lever is pushed down it locks the can in place during the opening proccess and keeps it there after it's open and until the lever is pulled up and the lock is released, at that point the can will fall out but, still sealed until you stick your finger nail in the crease to pull the lid off.

Mine has only gotten more difficult to use. If the can isn't EXACTLY round, it just stops and I have to start over again in a different spot and hope I can pry the lid off. I wouldn't buy this again, and have thrown it away.

Make sure the batteries are good and in correctly. You must place the opener on top of the can and press down on the gray button(on my opener it's gray) with slight pressure, it should engage and then release and it should continue until the top is free and allow it to stop on its own.

The holder is fixed. I use a can "huggie" with my soda cans. Hope that description helps as how wide the holder is. Good luck.

I don't know either. I tried to keep it open by placing a straight pin in the opening but now I can't get that out either. It is a problem.

Yes, must be stuck. Try some "Liquid Wrench" or "WD-40." They must have put the rivet in too tight.

Sounds like its defective, ours is tight (it was to be for waterproofing) but not unreasonably hard to get off. Perhaps try a pair of pliers?
