HELPFUL HINTS
N OTE:
For best results, go through the operating pro c e d u res, carefully noting all
c a u t i o n a ry points and hints, which are included for your understanding and benefit.
•
Make sure the machine is running at full speed before beginning to juice.
•
Do not force feed the juicer. For most fruits and vegetables, a slow, steady
push down the chute will work best. If the juicer begins to vibrate, a
slightly harder push should bring it back into balance.
•
T h e re is no need to cut a fruit or vegetable into sections that will fit whole
into the feeder chute. If it must be cut, cut only into large pieces that easily
fit down the feeder chute.
•
When making a drink that uses a combination of more than one fruit or
vegetable, we suggest alternating the various fruits or vegetables when
placing them in the machine. For example: Carrot Apple Juice – place
one or two pieces of carrot in feeder chute, then a piece or two of apple.
Keep alternating in this manner.
•
When juicing leafy greens, we suggest that you twist and roll the green into
a ball the size of a golf ball. Always place the greens into the juicer first,
f o l l owed by crispier vegetables such as carrots, celery, etc. The juice from
these vegetables will force additional juice from the gre e n s .
•
When juicing ve ry soft fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes, grapes
and peaches, we suggest that you do not use the filters! Feed the machine
s l ow l y, pausing between placing each fruit or vegetable into the feeder
chute. This will allow the juicer additional time to extract juice through
the strainer basket. It is also ve ry helpful to alternate with firmer fruits
and vegetables. We suggest using seedless grapes and re m oving the peels
f rom tomatoes and peaches. Due to the softness of these fruits and
vegetables, some vibration may occur.
•
A l l ow the Omega Juicer to run for one or two minutes after turning off the
Juicer to allow all juice to be extracted from the pulp. Once the juicer is
turned off, it is normal for the juicer to continue to spin for a minute or
two due to the precision balancing of the Omega Ju i c e r.
•
SELECTING FRU I TS AND V E G E TA B L E S. It is ve ry important that
you select fruits and vegetables that are ve ry fresh – firm, crisp and juicy!
•
CLEANING THE FRU I TS AND V E G E TABLES. Be f o re you begin
juicing, thoroughly wash all dirt and sprays from the fruits and vegetables
as many of the valuable food elements are under the surface near the skin.
H I N T: The only exceptions are cucumbers, pineapples, oranges and gra p e f ruit.
These should be peeled.
