Learn how to replace the cover on your Microplane Gourmet Series Ultra Coarse grater with this simple step-by-step guide. Keep your grater protected and ready to use.
Quick Answer
To replace the cover on your Microplane Gourmet Series Ultra Coarse grater, simply align the cover with the grater's edges and press it into place. No tools are needed.
Why Replace the Cover?
The cover on your Ultra Coarse grater does more than keep dust off. It protects the sharp cutting edges from accidental damage and keeps the grater safe to store in a drawer or with other utensils. Over time, covers can crack, warp, or simply get lost, leaving the blade exposed.
Replacing the cover is a quick fix that extends the life of your grater. The replacement cover is designed specifically for the Gourmet Series Ultra Coarse grater, so you can be confident it will fit snugly.
Steps to Replace the Cover
- Remove the old cover: If your current cover is still on the grater, gently pull it off. If it's cracked or broken, discard it. Check the old cover for damage to decide if it's worth keeping as a spare.
- Align the new cover: Hold the replacement cover with the open side facing the grater's cutting surface. Align the edges of the cover with the grater's frame. Make sure the cover is oriented correctly—the longer side matches the grater's length.
- Press into place: Press the cover firmly onto the grater until it snaps or fits snugly over the edges. Run your fingers along the sides to ensure it's fully seated. If the cover feels loose, remove it and re-align before pressing again.
