- Caution for Hand Washing: The blades are very sharp. We recommend wearing cut-resistant gloves when cleaning the drum blades by hand to prevent injury.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Grater does not suction to the surface. | Surface is not clean, smooth, or non-porous; suction lever not fully engaged. | Clean the surface and the suction cup. Ensure the surface is dry. Turn the suction lever fully clockwise until secure. |
| Difficulty turning the handle or food not grating. | Food is too large or too hard; blade is clogged; blade not properly installed. | Cut food into smaller pieces. Do not attempt to grate frozen items. Disassemble and clean the blade. Ensure the blade is correctly seated in the housing. |
| Food gets stuck between the drum and housing. | Overfilling the hopper; food pieces are too small or irregularly shaped. | Do not overfill the hopper. Use the food pusher to guide food evenly. Ensure food pieces are appropriately sized. |
