PREPARATION
Preparing Fruits & Vegetables for Juicing...
•Clean all produce thoroughly, using a natural bristle brush. If you are not
using organic produce, we recommend using a biodegradable cleaner to
help remove pesticide residue.
•Remove and discard the outer leaves of non-organic produce and peel
any waxed fruit or vegetable.
•Trim away any discolored or bruised sections.
•The skin may be left on all produce (including pineapple and melons)
except for oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines. The oil found in these
skins tastes bitter and difficult to digest.
•Remove melon seeds when possible, as they may escape through the top
of the Feed Tube while juicing. The pits of fruits such as cherries, pears,
and peaches should also be removed.
•The Juicer is designed to make juicing easier with an over-sized Feed
Tube to accommodate larger produce -- so feed most whole
apples and
oranges, tangerines, ginger, beets, pineapple or melons. Make sure
produce can be fed comfortably into the Feed Tube. Use the Food Pusher
to gently direct produce through the Feed Tube.
CAUTION: Never push produce into the Feed Tube with your fingers.
•Leafy greens, parsley, wheat grass, and sprouts should be bunched up
into a small, tight ball and pushed through with the Food Pusher.
•Bananas are not suitable for juicing; a clear juice cannot be obtained
from them and residue left in the machine can clog the micro-mesh
filter screen.
•Produce such as apricots, plums, pears, peaches, and tomatoes should
be firm for best results when juicing.
Refer to the “Fresh Juice Recipes & Menu Planner” for juice recipes, pulp
recipes, sample menus, and tips on buying and cleaning your fruit.

							STEP ONE:  Remove Clamps
Firmly grasp the hinge-end of the Clamp
and pull out to unlock; then lift the top of
the Clamp up/out to unhook from the
Clear Lid. Repeat for the opposite Clamp.
STEP TWO:  Remove Clear Lid
Grasp the Clear Lid by the Feed Tube; lift
and remove from the Juice Bowl. Make
sure to hold the Food Pusher in place if it
is being stored inside the Feed Tube.
STEP THREE:  Remove Juice Bowl   
Grasp the sides of the Juice Bowl with
both hands. With the Filter Basket still
inside, carefully lift the Juice Bowl off of
the Motor Base -- rotating slightly if
necessary. The Filter Basket can then be
removed from the Juice Bowl for easy
cleaning.
CAUTION: Use care when handling Filter
Basket; the Cutting Blades are very sharp!

DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
ALWAYS MAKE SURE THE JUICER IS UNPLUGGED
BEFORE STARTING TO DISASSEMBLE.
BEFORE FIRST USE
The Juicer comes almost completely assembled in the box. We suggest
taking it apart and washing the removable parts in warm water with a
biodegradable, non-abrasive liquid detergent before the first use. This will
eliminate any traces of dust or residue from manufacturing or shipping.
NOTE: The Juicer may be shipped with a protective cardboard insert
between the Feed Tube and Cutting Blade (in the Filter Basket). Remove this
and any other protective packaging before using the Juicer.
CAUTION: Never rinse or immerse the Motor Base in water or any
other liquid.
Refer to the ASSEMBLY and DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS. Make sure
the Juicer is properly and completely assembled before use. The Juicer will
not turn on unless properly assembled.

							•TO CLEAN THE FILTER BASKET:
Use a brush to make sure the tiny holes in the mesh filter are not
clogged. This can be accomplished by holding the Filter Basket
under a running faucet while brushing the mesh filter screen from
both inside and outside the Filter Basket.
NOTE:Occasionally
, the removable parts may be washed in a
dishwasher, only if
they are placed on the top shelfof the dishwasher.
However, washing with warm (not hot) tap water on a daily basis
should be sufficient.
REMOVING TOUGH STAINS
Due to the powerful staining properties of the carotenoids that are
found in many vegetables, especially carrots, we suggest soaking the
stained parts overnight in one of the following solutions:
- Biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover Juicer parts.
-1/4 cup bleach added to a sink full of warm water.
-1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar.
-1/2 small box baking soda in enough warm water to cover parts.
NEVER USE AMMONIA OR ABRASIVES!
After soaking overnight, lightly scrub with soft bristle brush and
liquid detergent. 
NEVER SUBMERGE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER
OR OTHER LIQUID!

~ Helpful Tip ~
The pulp from the Pulp Basket can be used in many different
ways: baking breads, muffins, cakes, soup stocks, compressed
facial packs and garden compost material.

TROUBLESHOOTING
POSSIBLE CORRECTION
Try juicing slower, as wet produce is more likely to build up
in the Lid. To release pulp, lightly tap on the side of the Lid.
Empty Pulp Basket if full.
Filter Basket may not have been seated correctly, causing it to
become unseated during use. Call Consumer Service at (800)
233-9054.
Snug seating is desirable. To insert, try seating the Filter
Basket on a different Hub position. To remove, turn Juice
Bowl in a clockwise direction.
This may be an isolated situation resulting from the varied
texture and moisture content of the produce. Stop juicing,
scrape off pulp using a brush with natural fibers, and begin
again, alternating types of produce.
Pulp may have built up on the Filter Basket. Clean the Filter
Basket and try alternating different types of produce while
juicing. Note: Because of the Juicer ’s powerful motor, a small
amount of noise and/or vibration is normal when the Juicer is
turned on and as it comes to a complete stop. All Juicers will
sound slightly different.
Juice the produce as slowly as possible. Keep the Pulp Basket 
emptied for good air flow through machine.
Juice slowly so that the Filter Basket does not fill up too
quickly with juice. Keep Pulp Basket emptied to allow good
air flow through the machine.
Juice slowly to avoid excessive pulp buildup inside the Lid
and Juice Bowl.
SYMPTOM
