How to Use
This product is for household use only.
- Before first use, you will need to charge the Grater Unit for about 15 hours, typically overnight. Subsequent chargesas needed should be for 12 hours or overnight.
Note: The Flip-Top Blade Holder and a Blade do not need to be in place in order to charge the Grater Unit. The Holder and desired Blade can be assembled on the Grater Unit just before using. - To charge the Grater Unit, plug the small end of the AC Charger into the Grater Unit and plug the other end into astandard wall outlet.
- When fully charged, the Grater Unit will operate for about 20 minutes, depending on the kind of food being grated, shredded or shaved.
Note: As an example, this is enough power for a family of 4 to each grate about 2 tablespoons of cheese on their pasta for about 4 dinners. This is also more than enough time for grating a larger quantity of cheese for cooking.
To Assemble
- Place the Grater Unit on a flat surface, such as a countertop or table. Fit rounded-rod top of the Flip-Top BladeHolder into the long slot at the top of the Grater Unit. Flip up the Holder; it will stay in position to allow a Blade to be placed on the Unit.
- Select a Blade. (See "Blade Chart" below) The Blade Eye should always be positioned at the top of the Grater Unit.
- Fit the Blade Indentation on the back of the Blade onto the Pin on the Grater Unit (A), then flip down the Holderand snap into place. The Grater is now ready to use.
Mounting the Wall Hook
- Hold the storage bracket against the wall in the desired location. Mark the location of the screw hole.
- Set the bracket aside and drill a hole through the mark.
- If mounting the unit on drywall or plaster, use a wall anchor. Push the anchor all the way into the drilled hole.
- Place the screw through the bracket and into the anchor or wood. Hand twist to secure initially, then tighten with ascrewdriver. Do not over-tighten.
- Use the Blade Eye to hang the Grater Unit securely on the Wall Hook.
Grating, Shredding or Shaving Foods with the Device
There are two ways to grate, shred or shave food using the Gizmo™ Grater:
This position is perfect for use at the table, for grating Parmesan cheese directly on top of pasta or Cheddar cheese on tacos, for example.
Note: For best result, lightly hold the food down on the Blade but do not press. Pressing the food down on the blade will result in reduced battery power and reduced shredding, grating or shaving performance.
This position is ideal when grating a quantity of food, such as grated citrus zest or grated or shredded cheese to be used in a recipe.
When finished grating, shredding or shaving, lightly tap the Food Rest with your fingers to ensure that all the food falls from the inside of the Blade. Use a rubber spatula to remove any food that may remain inside the Blade.
