The Edlund U-12 (U12) is
designed like a
#1 manual can opener, but
this opener is NSF
certified.
The U-12 (U12) comes apart easily
for cleaning, due to an easy-
change gear and a pull-pin
for the blade replacement.
The U-12 is nickel plated
with a stainless steel
shaft,
knife and gear. Regular
cleaning of this opener will
prolong the life of the
unit.
The U-12 opens 4-6 cans per
minute, but it is
recommended
that the U-12 be used to
open
no more than 50 cans daily.
It is normal for metal-to-
metal friction to eventually
cause knives and gears to
wear, so inspect and change
knives and gears regularly.
Replacement knife under item
#333K032SP and gear under
item #333G030SP are also
available.
