Use Guide

Assembly

1. Place the suction base on a clean, smooth, and dry countertop. Turn the knob from "RELEASE" to "LOCK" to secure it.
2. Place the transparent barrel onto the base.
3. Select the desired blade (slicing, coarse shredding, or fine shredding) and insert it into the transparent barrel.
4. Align the connection port on the blade with the port on the handle. Press down the button on the handle and insert it. Release the button; you should hear a click indicating it is locked in place.

Operation

1. Ensure the grater is securely assembled and locked to the countertop.
2. Place the food item into the transparent barrel.
3. Use the food pusher to hold the food against the rotating blade. Never use your fingers.
4. Turn the hand crank handle steadily. The shredded or sliced food will collect in your container below the barrel outlet.
5. For soft cheeses that may clog, chill the cheese in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes before grating.

Food Preparation Tips

• Cheese: Works best with hard and semi-hard cheeses. Soft cheeses may need chilling.
• Vegetables: Ideal for potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, radishes, and broccoli.
• Other: Can grate nuts, chocolate, and even soap. Not suitable for meat or chicken.

Cleaning and Maintenance

• Blades: The stainless steel blades can be washed on the top rack of a dishwasher.
• Transparent Barrel: Wash by hand with warm, soapy water.
• Handle and Suction Base: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Do not submerge.
• Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling or storing.
• Store the blades in a safe place using the provided packaging or a dedicated container to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

• Grater slips on counter: Ensure the counter surface is clean, smooth, and dry. Confirm the base knob is turned to "LOCK".
• Food is not grating smoothly:
  • Check that the correct blade is installed securely.
  • For soft foods like cheese, try chilling them first.
  • Apply steady, moderate pressure with the food pusher.
• Handle is difficult to turn: Ensure the blade is correctly installed and not obstructed by food debris. Disassemble and clean all parts.
• Food is jamming in the barrel: Do not overload the barrel. Use the food pusher to guide smaller pieces through.

• Ensure the suction base is securely locked before use.
• Keep the grater and its components out of reach of children.
