Troubleshooting
JUICING
Excess pulp building
up in the stainless-
steel filter basket
•
Turn the appliance off. Disassemble to scoop excess pulp off the juicer cover.
•
Reassemble and continue juicing. Alternating soft and hard ingredients may
help avoid this.
Pulp too wet and
reduced extracted juice
•
The cleaner the filter, the better the juice yield, and dryer the pulp. Be sure to
thoroughly clean the juicer as soon as possible after each use. Remove the
stainless-steel filter basket and thoroughly clean mesh walls with a cleaning
brush. Rinse the filter basket under hot water. If the fine mesh holes are
blocked, soak the basket in a solution of hot water with 10% lemon juice to
unblock the holes or wash in the dishwasher (top shelf). This will remove
excess fiber build up which could be inhibiting the flow.
•
Pusher force could reduce yield because it slows the motor down.
Avoid putting pressure on the food pusher when pushing ingredients down
the feed chute.
•
If juicing large amounts of fibrous ingredients like rhubarb and pineapple,
cleaning the filter basket in between might be required.
Juice leaks between
the filter bowl surround
and the juicer cover
•
Try a slower juicing speed and push the food pusher down the feed chute
more slowly.
•
Ensure there is no build up in the filter basket.
Juice sprays out
from spout
•
The juice is being extracted too fast; try a slower juicing speed (if possible)
and push the food pusher down the feed chute more slowly.
Motor appears to
stall during juicing
•
Wet pulp can build up under the juicer cover and stall the appliance if the
appliance is used excessively without cleaning. If this occurs, disassemble and
follow the cleaning instructions to clean the filter bowl surround, the stainless-
steel filter basket and the juicer cover.
•
The appliance can also stall if excessive force is used to push produce down
the feed chute. If this occurs, ensure that a gentler pressure is used to push
produce down the chute.
•
Turn on the appliance before putting ingredients in the chute. Pressing
ingredients down before the motor reaches full speed can cause it to stall or
overload.
•
Hard fruit and vegetables will put excess strain onto the motor if a low speed
is selected. Refer to the reference guide to determine the correct speed for the
fruit and vegetables selected for juicing.
