Introduction
The RIGSTNE Rotary Cheese Grater is a multi-functional kitchen appliance designed to simplify food preparation. This 3-in-1 tool allows for efficient slicing, shredding, and fine grating of various ingredients, including cheese, vegetables, and nuts. Its user-friendly design prioritizes safety and ease of cleaning, making it a reliable addition to any kitchen.
Setup and Assembly
- Secure the Suction Base: Place the grater's base on a clean, smooth, and dry countertop. Turn the lever on the side of the base to the "LOCK" position. This activates the anti-skid silicone suction base, firmly securing the grater to the surface for stable operation.

- Attach the Transparent Body: Align the transparent food chamber with the slots on the grater's base and slide it down until it clicks securely into place.

- Insert the Desired Blade: Choose one of the three interchangeable drum blades (slicing, shredding, or fine shredding) based on your needs. Insert the chosen blade into the transparent body, ensuring it is properly seated.
- Slicing Blade: Ideal for thin, even slices of vegetables like radish, zucchini, and cucumber.
- Shredding Blade: Perfect for carrots, potatoes, and general cheese shredding.
- Fine Shredding Blade: Best for finely grated cheese, nuts, chocolate, or biscuits.

- Attach the Handle: Insert the handle into the side of the transparent body, aligning it with the blade's mechanism. Turn the handle clockwise until it locks into place.
Operating Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Cut your ingredients (cheese, vegetables, nuts) into pieces that fit comfortably into the food chute.
- Place a Bowl: Position a bowl or container directly under the grater's output chute to collect the processed food.
- Load Ingredients: Place the prepared ingredients into the transparent food chute.
- Use the Pusher: Place the red food pusher on top of the ingredients in the chute. Apply gentle, steady pressure downwards with the pusher.
- Rotate the Handle: While applying pressure with the pusher, turn the handle clockwise. The blade will rotate, processing the ingredients quickly and efficiently. Continue until all ingredients are processed.

Care and Maintenance
- Disassembly: To clean, first turn the suction lever to "RELEASE" to detach the base. Then, press the release button on the side of the transparent body to detach it from the base. Remove the handle and the drum blade.
- Cleaning: All detachable parts (transparent body, drum blades, food pusher, handle) are dishwasher safe. For best results and to prolong the life of the blades, hand washing with warm, soapy water is recommended, especially for the blades. Ensure all food residue is removed.
- Drying: Thoroughly dry all components before reassembling or storing to prevent rust or water spots.
- Storage: Store the grater in a dry place. Its compact, detachable design allows for easy storage without taking up excessive space.
Troubleshooting
- Grater not sticking to countertop: Ensure the countertop surface is clean, smooth, and dry. Turn the suction lever firmly to the "LOCK" position. If the surface is textured or porous, the suction may not be effective.
- Food getting stuck or not processing smoothly:
- Ensure ingredients are cut to an appropriate size to fit the chute and allow for smooth rotation.
- Apply consistent, gentle pressure with the food pusher.
- For softer or waxy cheeses, chilling them slightly before grating can improve results.
- Check if the blade is correctly inserted and not obstructed.
- Difficulty turning the handle:
- Do not overfill the food chute.
- Ensure the blade is clean and free of dried food particles.
- Verify that the handle is securely attached and properly engaged with the blade.
