Note | • REVERSE: Pushes the ingredients back up to dislodge them.

The REVERSE button only works while holding down the switch.

•Switch OFF ensuring that the maXtractor™ comes to a complete stop. Then press REVERSE. Hold the REVERSE button for 2-3 seconds and release. Repeat as needed. Let the maXtractor™ stop completely before using the REVERSE button to prevent malfunction.

•If the maXtractor™ does not work after these steps, disassemble and clean the parts before operating the maXtractor™ again.

STEP 3 Insert the prepared ingredients one piece at a time.

Note | • Fibrous leafy vegetables (celery, kale, etc.):

»Separate each stem. Cut the outer stems that are thick and tough to 4 inches long or less.

»Bundle up the leafy vegetables as inserting into the maXtractor™. Alternate between leafy parts and stems.

•Before extracting, remove hard seeds or pits in ingredients.

•When juicing frozen fruits with small seeds, ensure that even the seeds are completely thawed.

•Insert the ingredients one piece at a time.

Tip | • Align the dots ●and slide the pusher in.

•After inserting ingredients, use the pusher when it is necessary. Too much use of the pusher may affect the juice quality.

»Intermittently use the pusher for soft ingredients like tomatoes and apples. Constant use of pusher for soft ingredients may affect the juice quality.

STEP 4 Use the smart cap to make mixed juices, stop juice from dripping, or rinse between

different juices.

Smart cap

Tip | • Juicing with the smart cap closed creates various mixed juice creations when different fruits and vegetables, milk, banana, beans etc. are selected.

•After juicing, close the smart cap to stop the juice from dripping, especially when disassembling the juicing bowl off the base.

•When making different juices quickly rinse away any leftover flavors by running a glass of water in the maXtractor™ with the smart cap closed.

Note | • Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive foam during extraction, (e.g. apples, celery).

•Pay close attention when operating with the smart cap closed. Juice may overflow if the juice collected in the juicing bowl exceeds its capacity marked on the bowl.

STEP 5 After juice and pulp are completely extracted, switch the unit OFF.

Note | • If the remaining ingredients in the juicing bowl have not been extracted completely, the hopper may not open easily. After each extraction, run the maXtractor™ for an additional 30 seconds to let the maXtractor™ extract the remaining pulp.

•When the hopper is stuck, press the REVERSE - OFF - FORWARD button in this order; switching back and forth 2 or 3 times to dislodge the ingredients. Then place hands on top of the hopper and firmly press down while simultaneously turning it counter clockwise to open.

»Depending on the ingredients, pour water down the hopper to rinse out the interior of the juicing bowl and then attempt to remove it.

TIPS ON OPERATION

1.Operating the maXtractor™ without ingredients can cause damage to the UltraSqueezer™.

2.Do not continuously operate the maXtractor™ for more than 30 minutes.

This can damage the motor from overheating.

After continuous use, let the maXtractor™ rest for 30 minutes to cool down before starting another session.

3.Do not put fingers or other objects into the hopper. Always use provided pusher when needed.

If other objects are inserted into the hopper during operation, such materials can get stuck and damage the maXtractor™ parts and/or cause injury.

4.Do not put dried or hard ingredients like whole grains, fruits with hard seeds or ice into the maXtractor™.

These may damage the parts (e.g. juicing bowl, UltraSqueezer™, and strainer).

•Beans or grains can be used if soaked overnight or boiled.

•Fruits with pits and hard seeds must be pitted before juicing (e.g. nectarines, peaches, mangoes and cherries).

•When using frozen fruits with small seeds such as grapes, completely thaw before inserting them into the maXtractor™.

5.Do not use ingredients containing excessive amounts of vegetable oil or animal fat. Do not use the maXtractor™ to extract vegetable oil from ingredients.

If vegetable/animal oil gets on the UltraSqueezer™, it may reduce performance and even damage the part.

6.Do not reinsert the extracted pulp into the maXtractor™. This can cause the unit to stop or cause the hopper not to open.

7.After juicing ingredients with seeds like grapes, thoroughly clean all the crevices on the bottom of the UltraSqueezer™.

TIPS ON INGREDIENTS

MaXtractor™ damage due to owner negligence or from not following the instructions of this manual will void the warranty.

INGREDIENTS PREPARATION

Before	• Before Operating: If the maXtractor™ is jammed or if the hopper does not
Operating:	open, press the REVERSE button and hold until the ingredient becomes
	dislodged. Repeat REVERSE-OFF-FORWARD as needed.
	• Continue operating the maXtractor™ until all the ingredients in the juicing
	bowl are extracted. The hopper may not open easily if there is a lot of pulp
	remaining in the maXtractor™.
	• Every ingredient yields different amounts of juice.
Juice Yield:	• For the optimal extraction and maximum juice yield, cut the ingredients
	following the guidelines given in this section.
	• Insert ingredients slowly monitoring how they are extracted.
	The juice yield may vary depending on the juicing speed.

Soft fruits and vegetables (e.g. oranges, tomatoes):

1-4 wedges

- Peel the skin off oranges, and for tomatoes and apples, take out the stem.

- If the ingredients are larger than the hopper, cut the ingredients into pieces that will fit into it.

- Fruits with seeds must be pitted before extraction.

Cut to 1-4 wedges then slowly insert the ingredients down the hopper.

PREPARATION TIPS:

• Cut 1-4 wedges.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

•Slowly insert the ingredients, one piece at a time.

•Use the pusher to push the ingredients down the hopper. (The pusher also helps prevent juice from spraying out of the hopper when extracting ingredients with high water content)

•Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive foam during extraction. (Foam can accumulate if operated with the smart cap closed).

•It is recommended that the extracted juice be consumed within 48 hours after extracting. Depending on the density of the ingredients, the extracted juice can gradually show layers over time.

•If there is an excessive amount of foam, use a mesh strainer to separate it from the juice.

•When an ingredient is being masticated by the UltraSqueezer™, the squeezed ingredient may splash juice through the hopper. Use the pusher to block out the juice splash when juicing.

How to Use	• Juicing with the smart cap closed allows mixed juice creations with different
the Smart	fruits, vegetables and liquids.
Cap:	• After juicing, close the smart cap to block excess juice from dripping,
	especially when disassembling the juicing bowl off the base.
	• When making different juices, quickly rinse away any leftover flavors by
	running a glass of water in the maXtractor™ with the smart cap closed.
	• Leave the smart cap open when juicing ingredients that create excessive
	foam during extraction (e.g. apples, celery).
	• Pay close attention when operating the maXtractor™ with the smart cap
	closed. Juice may overflow if the amount collected in the bowl exceeds its
	capacity marked.
Adjusting	• Depending on the ingredient, you may get extra pulp when juicing
the amount	continuously.

the juice:

Hard fruits and vegetables (e.g. carrots, potato, beets & spinach):

1/2 - 1 inch 6 inch

1 inch

Hard fruits and vegetables may put excess strain onto the motor and cause it to stall.

PREPARATION TIPS:

Soak in cold water prior to juicing and cut to appropriate sizes.

•Slice the ingredients 1 inch thick or cut 1 inch wide and 2-6 inches long.

•Soak hard ingredients like carrots and ginger in cold water prior to juicing.

EXTRACTION TIPS:

•Slowly insert the ingredients, one at a time.

•Pace the juicing speed ensuring each ingredient is thoroughly extracted.
