Helpful Tips
Clean Up
“Wash” all components before initial use. For fast and easiest 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 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 Blade balance itself before
coming into contact with the item to be juiced. Hard produce such as carrots can
cause the Blade to become unbalanced. If this should happen, continue to process
until the Blade comes back to balance. If the Blade doesn’t re-balance, turn the
power off and wait for the Blade to stop spinning. Disassemble the machine to
check for any food that may be stuck on the 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 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.
“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 Blade.
The Juice Spout
Make sure to lower the Juice Spout. The Juicer comes packed with the Spout in the
upward (closed) position. If you forget to lower the Spout, juice will back up in the
Receptacle and will overflow from the sides. This back up could also cause the motor
to seize. After juicing, lift the juice spout in the upward position to avoid
messy dripping.
