The nutcracker is firmly strapped in order to prevent damage. The dimensions of the package are 25 x 16 x 6 cm. The weight is 2.3 kg. Below the supplied parts:
Mounting:
After unpacking, the hooks of the body are slid into the notches of the base plate.
The body is fixed to the base plate by means of the small screw.
The lever is positioned with the lower ridges into the body, then the upper ridges are slit into the upper slits of the body.
Put the nutcracker with the two lock bolts on the wooden block and tighten the nuts with a pipe wrench.
On the picture below you can see how the nutcracker can be used on a table or workbench.
The faceplate is hung from above into the notches in the upper rim of the body and put obliquely by means of the big adjusting screw.
Depending on the (average) size of the nuts, the adjusting screw is tightened until the nuts become stuck at approximately the level of the adjusting screw.
Push the lever with the least possible force towards the faceplate, so that the nut just splits and the shells do not jump out of the cracker.
Since pieces of shell still may fly around, it is wise to protect your eyes with (safety) glasses.
