Features of your Sunbeam
Fresh Start™ Juicer
Food pusher
Whole fruit & vegetable feed chute
The extra large 75mm diameter feed chute takes whole fruit and vegetables reducing the amount of preparation needed.
Patent pending feed chute lever
Ensures a controlled and safe juicing action. The lever suspends the fruit above the blade until you are ready to apply downward
pressure with the food pusher and commence juicing.
Juicer cover
Juice collector / bowl
Twin-locking handles with safety braking system
4-second braking system provides essential safety. The blades will come to a complete stop, either when the juicing switch is turned ‘Off’ or the twin-locking levers are released.
Control switch with two speeds and off
Two speed control to optimise juicing results. Low speed for soft fruit, particularly those with a high water content including oranges and watermelon. High speed is ideal for hard and fibrous fruit and vegetables such as apples, ginger, celery and carrots.
2
Stainless steel blade and filtering basket
The commercial quality stainless steel blade and filtering basket, designed to maximise extraction of juice from fruit and vegetables.
Extra large pulp container
Large 3 litre capacity pulp container is ideal for extracting large volumes of juice without stopping. Once full the pulp container can be easily removed without having to dismantle the juicer.
Powerful 850 watt motor
Powerfully built 850 watt motor with 5 year guarantee, extracts juice at slower speeds reducing oxygen and heat damage to juice
– ensuring maximised juice extraction and less froth.
Cord wrap
Cord wraps away to keep bench top clean.
Non-slip feet
Heavy-duty non-slip feet ensure the juicer remains stable and prevents slipping on the bench top during use.
Juicing jug
1 litre juicing jug with froth separating lid ensuing on easy pour and a smooth tasting juice.

Helpful hints for juicing
Preparing fruit and vegetables
Wash all fruit and vegetables well before juicing. There is no need to peel vegetables that have a thin skin but a light scrub with a clean sponge will help rid of any dirt that may be stuck on or any waxy coatings.
Peel fruit and vegetables that have a thick skin such as melons, pineapple and citrus fruit.
Juice only the freshest of fruit and vegetables to get the most out them and the best flavours.
Cut large pieces of fruit, such as melons into large wedges.
Some seeds from citrus fruits can be bitter so you may want to remove some of the seeds if desired.
Remove seeds and stones from fruit such as mangoes, papaya and stone fruit. This will prevent the blade from getting damaged.
Juicing techniques
When juicing different fruit and vegetables it may help to juice in different combinations. For example, when juicing apples and oranges, juice the soft fruit (oranges) first, then follow with the hard fruit (apples) second. This will help you to achieve the maximum juice extraction from the fruit and vegetables.
When juicing fresh herbs such as mint or parsley, add the herbs in between the fruit and vegetables to get the most out of the herb or if only using a small quantity, add the herb at the same time as a piece of fruit and vegetable.
Bananas can be hard to juice but the taste goes a long way. When juicing a blend of fruit with bananas, add the banana as either the first or second piece of fruit. The nectar of the banana will sit inside the filtering basket and as the remaining fruits are added into the juice extractor they will release the banana nectar throughout the rest of the juice resulting in frothy flavoursome juice.
When juicing small fruit such as grapes or strawberries, add the fruit in handfuls rather than one at a time, this will maximise the amount of juice extracted.
Be aware that beetroot stains all other fruit and vegetables. If juicing several different juice combinations, juice the drink with the beetroot last, so as to not stain the other drinks.
