Proper way to use a can opener

or can of red fruit
This works great if you don't need to seal the can again, but removing that lip is hell on can covers for stuff like pet food, so I had to go back to the old way of doing it.

Thank you. I have a can opener just like that and have a lot of trouble getting it to work. I will definitely try the blade on the side technique.
yeah - I tried it on a few cans with 2 different openers - wasn't very successful. Looks great on paper. 
The can opener I bought at Kitchen a-la-mode only opens cans on their side. Very easy to use and takes up less drawer space.
I’ve got special can covers I use on opened cas. Made from waxed cloth. Been doing this for years.
Sorry for typos
