Cleaning Precautions
It is important to clean the different parts
of the squeezer at the end of the day.
To avoid any incidents, the cleaning ope-
ration should be performed observing
the following SAFETY GUIDELINES:
a) Before proceeding to clean any part of the
machine (including the external housing),
make sure to turn it off using the On/Off
switch [8] and disconnect the plug from the
mains outlet.
b) Never clean the body of the squeezer by
splashing water on it or submerging it in wa-
ter.
c) Never use abrasive cleaning products or
chemical solvents to clean the machine. Use
a soft cloth dampened in water.
d) Cleaning of the squeezer by the user
should be limited to the external housing
and the movable parts used to obtain juice.
Cleaning of the squeezer’s interior (motor)
must be left ONLY TO CUNILL TECHNICAL
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
To ensure optimum operation of the
squeezer, clear the pulp and clean the
dome/strainer [4] and juice collector [6] after
every ten half-fruits squeezed. This ensures
the obtention of almost pulp-free juice.
VERY IMPORTANT: Although the squeezer’s
design makes it practically impossible for
juice to drip in its interior (the electrical
motor is housed in a casing to prevent this
possibility), before cleaning the machine it is
advisable to make sure that all the elements
(pressure handle [2], upper lid [3], press
plate [5], dome/strainer [4], juice collector
[6]) ARE COMPLETELY DRY.
Only clean the dome/strainer [4] and juice
collector [6] by removing them carefully from
their casing (they are not attached or held
by any mechanism) and rinse them under
the tap or using a cloth dampened in water.
Once the parts are clean and dry, repla-
ce them carefully, MAKING SURE THE
NOTCHES ON THE BACK OF THE DOME/
STRAINER [4] AND THE SHAFT ARE
ALIGNED.
To clean the upper lid [3] and press plate
[5], unscrew them from the pressure handle
[2] turning carefully in a counter-clockwise
direction.
Cleaning of these components can be left
until the end of each working day; in the
meantime, spot cleaning can be done using
a damp cloth without disassembling the
parts.
Be careful when screwing on the press plate
[5] to avoid altering the threaded section of
the pressure handle [2].
