I have had this happen in the past...couple things you might try.... put it outside or in the freezer to cool it down. next i have dumped olive oil 'around' the end of it that is butted against the unit- some should seeps down and then i used a dull butter knife or steak knife to wedge in there to pry it off.(genlty) in different positions. If it is rusted on, well that's another matter entirely. But if it's just stuck, could be that you haven't oiled it each time? or my other guess is they aren't making the cutters like they did 25 years ago as i have had 3 champtions and more problems with the new ones and cutters jamming (i put a coule drops of olive oil into the hole in the cutter each time). and as a last resort a big burly man with gloves and feet to hang on to it and jimmy it off LOL good luck ;-)
