User questions & answers

Question:	Do 24oz cans fit this crusher
Answer:	When it us mounted as instructed, the arm does not raise high enough for a 16 oz can. You need to secure maybe a piece of 2x4 behind the base. Then the arm extends fully. This is not mentioned in the instructions.
Question:	Will this crush 8 oz aluminum cans, like the slim dr. pepper cans? (like these: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/i/51pydz405dl._sy355aa355_pibundle
Answer:	Our crusher works fine not mounted. The trick is to dent the can a little bit before crushing. Its almost impossible to crush the can if it's not dented a bit. I am very petite and not very strong, but I have no problem using the crusher on our countertop with a dented can. So glad I took a chance and bought this!
Question:	does it crush 16 oz cans
Answer:	Hello, thanks for your question. The .12” heavy duty blade is made from one piece fully forged high performance German stainless steel, the full tang distributes weight more evenly along the knife which provides great balance and leverage capabilities.
Question:	Can you use this without mounting to a surface? (i.e. Lying flat on a counter or the floor when using it

User questions & answers

Question:	Can it also crush smaller cans? Or only the one size
Answer:	Yes it definitely has to be mounted. The main reason I bought it was for my wife and grandkids so they could crush their own. I still use my boot like I've done my whole life. It works great for them
Question:	Will it accommodate cat food cans? They are wider and flatter than beverage cans
Answer:	It would be pretty awkward to use if it weren't mounted to something solid. It has a variety of mounting holes so that you can attach it to a firm surface, like a wall, cabinet, wall stud, tree, fence post, etc. When crushing a can you need to put a quite a bit of force on the handle so it needs to be securely mounted.
Question:	Is wall mounting required or can it be used for 1 can per day freestanding crusher? If not Any ideas of how to achieved this
Answer:	Made in China!
Question:	does this have to be mounted
Answer:	Yes. There’s a small slot the crushed cans fall out.

User questions & answers

Question:	how can I get replacement parts for my easy pull can crusher
Answer:	Simple. Go to: [email protected] or call 800-437-7337 Easy Pull is made using American jobs and built with pride. The item offers a manufactures warranty on all molded parts from breakage.Call us with a question, we will be glad to help. (Not intended for use in rain or snow)
Question:	Does it come with the mounting screws/hardware
Answer:	Yes, the screws are included. Keep in mind they are quite long about 3" and must be screwed into a stud please pre drill the holes. The mount orientation of the screws are vertical so that you will only need to find one stud. You will need a Number 3 phillips head screw driver, the common #2 used most will make installation difficult. Hope this helps.
Question:	Dial industries easy pull aluminum can crusher: am i buying the new upgraded version of this item? the review says old version doesn't last long
Answer:	The tabs on the side that held the handle in the upright position on the original model were not very robust and seemed to fail for many causing the handle to fall down after use. The model that you are purchasing addressed this issue years ago, so the answer to your question is yes. I have had mine since the original review that I wrote to now and not one failure. Still works like the day I bought it at least 6 years ago. I think it has been that long maybe longer, this thing won't die. Been through thousands of cans and hundreds of dollars back in my pocket. Hope this helps
Question:	what size cans can you crush with this unit? we have the 16 oz cans from miller lite with the small neck will this crush them
Answer:	The "tall-boy" cans don't fit. This works best with your typical 12 oz. can, but I was able to a regular sized red-bull can which are a little taller than a 12 oz. can. Anything taller and it won't fit in the crushing mechanism.
