Then using pliers or a flat head screwdriver, pry up each tab. You can add the opener with this product before you add-to-cart.Ģ) If you have two (2) channel lock pliers, you can use them to walk around the lid, using both to pry up a little at a time.ģ) Cut slits in the side of the lid using a hacksaw every 4-5 inches apart, all the way around the lid to create tabs. We recommend three methods to remove the lids:ġ) The easiest is to purchase the bucket opener. These lids are on tight and might be difficult to remove without some guidance.
