DH: I have had this crusher for only 4 days and LOVE it after I made 2 minor adjustments that really helped.
As a few other reviewers mentioned, the next can in line would fall behind piston and get stuck. There are a set of vertical wire bars along back edge that are intended to hold next can to be crushed in correct position. I just bent them out towards can stack a little more for a stronger pre-load. Has worked great so far.
Also noticed that when crushing a can the top edge of the crushing plate would sometimes hit the bottom edge of the next can in line above it and would also cause a can to drop behind the piston and get stuck. Basically, the can being crushed was just sitting a bit too low in "crushing chamber" and allowing can above to get in the way a tiny bit. There are 2 horizontal wire bars underneath crushing chamber intended to hold can at correct level. Again, just bent them up a tiny bit which shifted can being crushed, and whole can stack, up an 1/8" or so. perfect fix. Not sure yet if both adjustments will stand the test of time.
And something that takes a lot of stress off of whole machine, squeeze cans slightly and leave a small dent before...

Amazon Customer: First thing I did was put a few dented cans in. I always dent the can to reduce the force required. When you do this the crusher jams every time. I cut the stacker guide off. this makes it easier to load anyway. Otherwise it works great. I did have to lubricate the pivots but that is expected. The only thing I would change is to use bushings in the crusher arm. I will probably add them if the holes start to wear very much.
