Overview

Peeling potatoes is quick and easy with Rotato. It peels just the skin without wasting any of the nutritious part of the vegetable. Rotato is simple and safe to operate. Its non-slip base holds securely to the counter or other work surfaces. Rotato comes with a little plastic knife, stored conveniently under the base. It’s specially designed for easy removal of potato eyes or other blemishes. It makes peeling all kinds of fruits and vegetables easy and effortless. Rotato…the indispensable kitchen tool!

HELPFUL HINTS

Before peeling, put a paper towel beneath the Rotato to catch peelings.
When choosing foods to be peeled, choose fruits and vegetables that are firm, blemish free and symmetrically shaped. Fruits or vegetables more than 14 cm tall should be cut in half so the Rotato can grip them firmly.

HOW TO PEEL FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Center the food on the bottom food holder and press gently.
Lower the upper food holder so that it grasps the food and holds it securely.
Using the height adjustment lever, raise the cutter arm so that it rests on top of food to be peeled. WARNING: Do no grab cutter blade, it is razor sharp.
While pressing lightly on the upper food holder, turn the handle.
The skin peels off in one clean, continuous curl.

HOW TO REMOVE PEELED FOOD

Lift upper food holder from food and raise it to the top of the support column.
Grasp food and using a gentle back and forth rocking motion, remove food from bottom food holder pulling towards you. Do not yank your fruit or vegetable straight up from the bottom food holder. You don’t want to accidentally swing your hand into the holder spike.
WARNING: Do not grab cutter blade, it is razor sharp.
Trim off any deep potato eyes with the little plastic knife. Use the same knife to remove blemishes on fruits and vegetables.

HOW TO CHANGE THE BLADE

Rotato’s blades are specially designed to give clean and easy peeling or cutting. When the blade skips or jams, or is excessively clogged, it’s time to change blades.

Turn the Rotato upside down and open the blade storage compartment located underneath the base. Pry loose the red plastic part, remove one of the new blades.
Remove the cutter head by gently pulling the lock-in attachment from the cutter arm.
Unlatch and slide the used blade away from the cutter head. Dispose of the used blade using the same precautions taken with a sharp razor.
Slide the new blade down the ridge of the blade holder. Made sure the blade is solidly in place before proceeding to the next step.
Put the cutter head back on the Rotato by inserting the lock-in attachment into the cutter arm.
