IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be observed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or
motor base in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep
fingers out of food chute.
6. Always make sure juice extractor cover
is clamped securely in place before
motor is turned on. Do not unfasten
cover latch while juice extractor is in
operation.
7. Never operate without pulp bin in place.
8. Be sure to turn switch to OFF position
after each use of your juice extractor.
Make sure the motor stops completely
before disassembling.
9. Do not put fingers or other objects into
the juice extractor food chute while it is
in operation. Never feed food by hand –
always use the food pusher. If food
becomes lodged in the opening, use
food pusher or another piece of fruit or
vegetable to push it down. When this
method is not possible, turn the motor
off, unplug the cord from the outlet, and
disassemble juicer to remove the
remaining food.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped
or damaged in any manner. Call our
toll-free customer service number for
information on examination, electrical
repair, mechanical repair or adjustment.
11. The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by the appliance
manufacturer may cause fire, electric
shock, or injury.
12. Do not use outdoors.
13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
14. Do not leave juice extractor unattended
while it is operating.
15. Blades are sharp; handle carefully.
16. Keep hair, clothing, and jewelry, as well
as spatulas and other utensils, away
from food chute during operation to
prevent the possibility of severe injury
to persons and/or damage to the
appliance.
17. Do not use appliance if cutter/strainer
is damaged.
18. The cutter/strainer is a very delicate
screen not covered under the warranty.
Do not wash in an automatic dishwasher.
Inspect cutter/strainer for breaks, cracks,
or looseness. Do not use a broken,
cracked, or loose cutter/strainer. Call our
toll-free customer service number to
order a new cutter/strainer.
Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use
only.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not
use another high-wattage appliance on the
same circuit with your juice extractor.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has
a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces
the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one
way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the plug by modifying the
plug in any way or using an adaptor. If the plug
does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance
was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a
longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of
the extension cord must be equal to or greater
than the rating of the appliance. Care must be
taken to arrange the extension cord so that it
will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

How to Use
7. When pulp bin is full, turn unit off. It
is very important to empty the pulp
bin when full. For best performance,
empty pulp bin and clean cutter/

8. When juicing is completed, or when
pulp bin or juice container need to
be emptied, turn unit off and unplug
from outlet. Immediately wash cutter/strainer according to instructions.
Laceration Hazard.
• Never use fingers or utensils other than the food pusher as a food pusher. Food
should be placed in food chute only when unit is operating. Food can be continuously placed in food chute without having to turn off unit.
• The cutter/strainer may fly apart during use if it is damaged. To reduce risk of
personal injury:
–Never wash cutter/strainer or other removable parts in a dishwasher.
–Always inspect cutter/strainer before each use.

• Juicing avocados or bananas
produces a puree rather than a juice.
• Form leafy vegetables into compact
balls or rolls before inserting into food
chute.
• One pound of raw produce usually
yields one cup (8 ounces) of juice.
• When working with large quantities of
fruits and vegetables, be sure to stop
unit to empty pulp bin as it begins to
fill. The cutter/strainer should also be
cleaned, as the extraction will
decrease considerably.
• If you desire a clear juice, filter juice
through layers of cheesecloth or a
coffee filter. This will also remove any
foam which results during juicing.
• To keep juices from discoloring
during storage, add a few teaspoons
of lemon juice.
• Serve juices immediately, as the
flavor and nutrient content decreases
rapidly when juices are stored. If it
is necessary to juice fruits and
vegetables some time before serving,
cover container tightly and refrigerate.
Do not store for more than 24 hours.
• The flavor, color, and consistency of
freshly juiced fruits will be different
from canned juices.
• Substitute fruit or vegetable juices for
stock or water in cooking.
• Some pulp remaining in juice is
normal. It increases the juice’s flavor
and nutritive value.
• Potato juice can be used in place of
cornstarch or flour as a thickening
agent in gravies and soups.
• Vegetable juice mixed with carrot
juice will produce a sweeter
vegetable flavor.
• Freeze vegetable pulp for use in
making soups.
• The softer the texture of a fruit or
vegetable, the thicker the juice
produced. Apricots, peaches, pears,
melons, and strawberries are soft
textured fruits. The juice that is
extracted from these fruits is very
thick and is known as nectar. It is
best to combine these juices with
thinner juices, such as carrot or
apple. Beet greens, parsley, spinach,
and watercress yield very rich and
thick juices. They are very strongflavored and taste best when
combined with other fruits and
vegetables.
Juicing Tips and Techniques
Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. Remove pits, stones, and large seeds from
apricots, cherries, peaches, plums, etc. Remove rind from thick-skinned fruits and
vegetables such as oranges, lemons, grapefruit, tangerines, watermelons, pineapples,
and winter squash.
Important Information
• The juice extractor is manufactured
for NORMAL HOUSEHOLD USE. If
you have large quantities, such as
10 pounds or more, process in small
batches, allowing motor to cool
completely between uses.
• When juicing CARROTS, DO NOT
PACK food chute. Place carrots in
food chute one by one, and press
down gently with food pusher.
• DO NOT OVERLOAD THE FOOD
CHUTE. For best results, simply drop
food pieces, one at a time, into
chute. Press down gently and slowly
with food pusher. This will extract the
maximum amount of juice.
• If the juice extractor SEEMS TO
STRUGGLE or slow down, turn the
unit OFF and unplug. Thoroughly
wash the cutter/strainer and separator
according to instructions. Reassemble
and continue juicing.

Cleaning and Storing
1. Turn OFF and unplug from electrical
outlet.
2. Empty pulp bin.
3. Unlock safety latch. Remove cover.
Remove separator with cutter/strainer
immediately after using. Do not let
food dry and harden on the cutter/
strainer. For hard to remove particles,
use a plastic bristle brush or
toothbrush.
4. Wash food pusher, cover, separator,
and pulp bin in hot, soapy water.
Rinse, dry, and reassemble for storage. These parts may also be
washed in the dishwasher.
5. DO NOT WASH the cutter/strainer in
the dishwasher. The cutter/strainer
teeth are sharp. Handle carefully.
Wash the cutter/strainer in hot,
soapy water. Rinse; then let dry.
6. Some foods may stain plastic parts.
To treat stained parts, make a paste
of baking soda and water and rub
on stained area with a damp cloth.
Rinse and dry.
NOTE: Carrots will stain the unit
permanently.
7. Wipe outside of base with a damp
cloth. Never immerse base in water.
Shock Hazard. Do not immerse motor base in water or any
other liquid.
w WARNING
To prolong the life of the juice extractor, it is recommended that all washable parts
be washed immediately after each use.
The cutter/strainer is a very delicate screen subject to wear and therefore is not
covered under warranty. Do not wash in an automatic dishwasher.
Inspect cutter/
strainer for breaks, cracks, or looseness. Do not use a broken, cracked, or loose
cutter/strainer.
Call the toll-free customer service number to order a new cutter/
strainer.
