Assemble the parts and get apart is always a difficult Rumgefummel and you know 'never whether the located now correctly or not. Particularly after use if all glued and clamped residues.
When everything is assembled, you think you can start, but Nope.
The vegetables immediately wedged in the filler neck and clogs the striking surface. Between grater and housing is so much space that accumulate there immediately vegetable scraps, which ensures at the next turn that you no longer rubs grater and you have to press harder. The stronger you push, the more slips back between drum and housing. Then one has no other choice than the oppressors rauszunehmen (if it has not been clamped just) and with a fork to remove the hard pressed residues from the opening.
Then the game starts again from the beginning.
If you want to clean the grater drum Mussmann also with any tool out first scrape the whole vegetable scraps and try the remains between grater and housing to be removed as the grater clamps otherwise irretrievably.
For me, this device is an absolute full catastrophe. It means more work and produced mainly a lot more frustration than an old-fashioned hand grater.
Since it was a gift I can not change it unfortunately. Offer this would be an option, but would certainly be expected anyone. Anyway, I'll stop using it!
