Troubleshooting
Pit not being fully removed
Ensure the cherry is properly seated and aligned within the stoner. Try inserting the cherry stem-down if it has a stem. Apply consistent pressure.
Cherry is being crushed
Check that you are using the correct size cherry for the device. Ensure the pressure applied is firm but not excessive. Clean the star-shaped ejector if it appears clogged.
Tool feels stiff or difficult to operate
Wash the stoner thoroughly to remove any residue. Ensure all parts are dry before use. If the issue persists, a small amount of food-grade lubricant on the pivot points might help, but this is rarely necessary.
