NOTES
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock do not put cord, plugs, or
appliance in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or 
near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, or is dropped or damaged in any manner.
Contact Consumer Service for examination, repair or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments, including canning jars, not recommended by
the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
10. Do not let cord contact hot surface, including the stove.
11. Always make sure Juicer Cover is clamped securely in place before 
motor is turned on. Do not unfasten Locking Clamps while Juicer is 
in operation.
12. Press the ON/OFF Switch down to the OFF position and unplug from
electrical outlet after each use of your Juicer. Make sure the Motor is
completely stopped before disassembling.
13. Do not put your fingers or other objects into the Juicer opening while it

							TROUBLESHOOTING  
(Continued)
Possible CorrectionImproper fit between the Blade Basket and Hub can cause parts of 
the Juice Bowl to rub against the Blade Basket. If this is the case, 
call Consumer Service at (800) 233-9054.
Certain produce (pineapples and overripe produce) may build up on
Blade Basket, causing pulp to eject before juice is completely extracted.
Fruit tends to produce wetter pulp than vegetables. If problem persists,
rinse Blade Basket.
Try a different wall outlet. Also let Juicer sit for about an hour without
turning it on; moisture may have collected on the circuit board,
causing machine to shut OFF. If situation is not resolved, call
Consumer Service at (800) 233-9054.
Try a different wall outlet. Check the Cover, Blade Basket, and Juice
Bowl to see if they are properly seated, and the Locking Clamps are
engaged properly so that the Interlock Switch is activated.
SymptomInside rim of
Juice Bowl is
worn or
chipped (inside
lower rim or
inside upper
rim).
Wet pulp.
Juicer stopped
while juicing.
Juicer does not
turn ON.

2     
						

							TROUBLESHOOTING
Possible CorrectionTry juicing slower, as wet produce is more likely to build up in Cover.
To release pulp, lightly tap on the side of the Cover. Empty Pulp
Basket if full.
Blade Basket may not have been seated correctly, causing it to
become unseated during use. Should this be the case, check  the 
gear teeth of the Blade Basket and the Motor Base for damage. If any
teeth are damaged, call Consumer Service at (800) 233-9054.
Snug seating is desirable. To insert, try seating the Blade 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
and begin again, alternating types of produce.
Pulp may have built up on the Blade Basket. Clean the Blade Basket
and try alternating different types of produce while juicing. NOTE: 
Because of the Juiceman’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 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 Blade Basket does not full 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 Cover and
Juice Bowl.
SymptomPulp builds up
excessively in 
the back of 
the Juicer Cover.
Bottom of 
Feed Tube is 
damaged.
Blade Basket is
difficult to:
• insert onto 
the Hub;
• remove from
the Hub.
Too much pulp
builds up on
Blade Basket.
Excessive noise or
vibrations occur
after Juicer is 
turned on.
Juice sprays out
of the Spout.
Juice leaks
between Juice
Bowl and Cover.
Pulp in juice.

POLARIZED PLUGThis appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way.SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONSA short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Do not use an extension cord with this product.ELECTRIC POWERIf the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance
may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical
circuit from other appliances.

CLEANING YOUR JUICER  
(Continued)
After cleaning and reassembly is complete, your new Juicer is
ready to go to work! Before starting, make sure the Blade
Basket is securely seated and the Pulp Basket is at the rear of
the Juicer to receive pulp. The pulp from your Juicer can be
used in many different applications such as breads, muffins,
cakes, soup stocks, compressed facial packs and garden compost
material. Refer to the 
Fresh Juice Recipes & Menu Planner
for
juice recipes, pulp recipes, sample menus, and tips on buying,
cleaning and storing. Unplug unit and allow to cool. 
Clean the Juicer following the procedures described in this
Instruction Manual. 
Unplug unit and clean before storing. Store in its box 
in a clean, dry place. Never store it while it is hot or still
plugged in. Wrap cord around feet to store. Never wrap cord
tightly around the appliance. Do not put any stress on the cord
where it enters the unit, as it could cause the cord to fray and
break.
Any other
servicing
should be
performed by
authorized
personnel onlySTORAGE

							Clean Your
Juicer
Thoroughly
Before Retiring
For The DayPLEASE NOTE:CLEANING YOUR JUICER
10 •Unplug from outlet before assembling or removing parts and before
cleaning.
Do not immerse the Motor Base in water or spray it with water. Clean
only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth, or paper towel. Use any
liquid dishwashing detergent but do not use any products containing
ammonia or scouring powders. These products will dull, scratch or
mar the plastic surface.•All parts (except the Motor Base) are washable in warm, soapy
water. Please follow the procedures outlined in the DISASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS section of this Instruction Manual. To clean the
Juicer Cover and Juice Bowl, we recommend using a fruit and vege-
table brush with natural fibers. 
DO NOT USE A METAL BRUSH OR PAD.
•When cleaning the Blade Basket, use the brush to make sure the
tiny holes in the Basket are not clogged. This can be accomplished
by holding the Blade Basket under a running faucet while brushing
the Basket holes from both inside and outside the Blade Basket.
•Occasionally, the Juice Bowl, Juicer Cover, and Blade Basket may
be washed in a dishwasher, 
only if
they are placed on the 
top shelf
of the dishwasher. However, washing with ordinary warm (not hot)
tap water on a daily basis should be sufficient.
•Sponge off the Motor Base and the legs underneath if any juice has
spilled under the Juicer. Use a damp toothbrush or cloth to clean
juice from inside the Motor Hub on top of the Motor Base.
Juicer should be air-dried only!
Due to the powerful staining properties of the carotenoids that are
found in many vegetables, especially carrots, we suggest the following
cleaning procedures:
•Stained parts may be soaked overnight in 
any 1
of these 4
cleaning solutions: 
(1) biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover Juicer parts
(2) 1/4 cup bleach to sink full of warm water
(3) 1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar
(4) 1/2 small box baking soda in enough warm water to cover parts.
•Never use ammonia or abrasives.
•Lightly scrub with soft bristle brush and  liquid detergent 
after soaking.
•
NEVER SUBMERGE THE MOTOR BASE IN W
ATER OR OTHER LIQUID!
BEFORE FIRST USE The Juiceman® Jr. comes almost completely assembled in the box. We suggest
taking it apart and washing the removable parts in warm water with a biodegrad-
able, non-abrasive liquid detergent before the first use. This will eliminate any
traces of dust or residue from manufacturing or shipping.NOTE: 
Your Juicer may be shipped with a protective cardboard insert between the
Feed Tube and Cutter Blade (on the Blade Basket). Remove this and any other
protective packaging before using your Juicer.
CAUTION: Never rinse or immerse the Motor Base in water or any 
other liquid.
NOTE: 
Refer to the 
Fresh Juice Recipes & Menu Planner
for juice recipes, pulp
recipes, sample menus, and tips on buying, cleaning and storing. 
•Make sure the Blade Basket is securely seated and the Pulp Basket is at the 
rear of the Juicer, ready to catch pulp. To save cleaning time, line the Pulp
Basket with a plastic produce bag (the kind you put your produce in at the
grocery store). 
•Place a glass underneath the Juice Spout.
•Read assembly and disassembly directions. 
Make sure the Juicer is properly and
completely assembled. The Juicer will not turn on unless properly assembled.
PREPARING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FOR YOUR JUICER•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
oranges, grapefruit, and tangerines. The oil found in these skins tastes bitter and
is 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.
•Cut produce into pieces small enough to fit into the Feed Tube. Use the Food
Pusher to gently direct produce through the Tube. 
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 either a carrot or 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 screen. Produce such as
apricots, plums, pears, peaches, and tomatoes should be firm for best results 
when juicing
