Helpful Tips
Clean Up
Wash all components before initial use. For fast and easy cleanup, rinse
components under warm water, or place in dishwasher immediately after juicing.
Pulp Collector:
For quicker and easier cleanup, you can insert a plastic bag
inside Pulp Collector to discard after juicing or simply rinse out Pulp Collector
or place in dishwasher.
Balancing the Filter/Blade, 5-10 Seconds is All it Takes
It is necessary to run the machine for approximately 5-10 seconds each time
before inserting any produce to be juiced. This lets the Filter/Blade balance itself
before coming into contact with the item to be juiced. Hard produce, such as
carrots, can cause the Filter/Blade to become unbalanced. If this should happen,
continue to process until the Filter/Blade comes back to balance. If the Filter/
Blade doesn’t rebalance, turn the power off and wait for the Filter/Blade to stop
spinning. Disassemble the machine to check for any food that may be stuck on
the Filter/Blade causing this unbalance.
IMPORTANT:
One of the great features of the Power Juicer is its extra large
Chute, which speeds up the juicing process by cutting down on prep time.
Still you must be careful not to force anything into the opening that is too
big and might result in jamming the Filter/Blade, causing the “Built-In
Thermal Cut-Off Switch/ Automatic Shut Off” to engage and shut down the
unit temporarily. Always put softer fruits and vegetables in first followed
by the more firm ones. When inserting produce into the Chute, you must
replace the Pusher quickly to prevent the produce from popping out of the
Chute. Also, do not overfill the chute with produce because this may jam the
juicer and cause is to shut down. This can also cause a juice overflow in the
receptacle.
“Auto-Motor-Saver Shutdown” Feature
Unlike other juicers, the Power Juicer is equipped with a special feature that
automatically shuts off the motor should the unit become jammed during the
juicing process. Should this happen, simply follow the Disassembly, Cleaning, and
Assembly process, then allow the unit to cool for 10 minutes. The unit will restart
and you may resume the juicing process.
Gentle Pressure Using the Pusher
When juicing, applying gentle pressure with the Pusher is sufficient. Never apply
excessive force to the Pusher as this may stop the Filter/Blade. This can also
cause the juice to come out of the side of the receptacle.
