3. Clasp the bottle top with the two gripper handles and squeeze the handles together. You will see two pins extrude from the black rubber side pads.

4. While clasping the bottle neck with the gripper handles, pull the large lever handle up and towards you, arcing all the way back over the machine to the "closed " position. The spiral is now fully inserted into the cork.

Please Note: Composite or synthetic corks utilized by some wineries today present particular challenges for this and ALL other corkscrews. In fact, the lift in pounds-per-square inch required may be triple or even quadruple the amount of a standard natural cork! Best results in these cases occur when the Lever Model Wine Openers are used with deliberation - instead of a zip/zip action, be deliberate as you insert the worm and extract the cork.
