4.2 About the juice extractor
With the electric juice extractor ”Bartscher PRO“you can professionally produce juice
from fruits and vegetables.
The lid with the integrated, very lagged XXL feed chute with a diameter of 83 mm,
significantly improves the process of preparation.
The big 7 liter pulp container lets you squeeze a lot of juice without interruption. When
the pulp container fills up, just remove it and empty it without a need to disassemble the
device.
The lid of the juice extractor is held by the locking arm
with housing, which allows –if the device is correctly
assembled –to close the motor circuit thanks to the
integrated safety switch. Only then it is possible to switch
the device on. The safety switch immediately stops the
motor, when the locking arm with housing is released.
The device is equipped with the overheating protection. When the device overheats
from being used for too long or from being overloaded, it is switched off automatically,
and after cooling off (ca. 15 minutes) it is switches on again.

5.3 Operation
Preparing fruits and vegetables
CAUTION!
Before extracting the juice, wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly to remove
any pollutants and plant protection products.
For the top performance and best taste use only fresh fruit and vegetables.
The best foods for the juice extractor are apples, pineapples, oranges, grapes,
melons, carrots, celery, beetroots and tomatoes.
Thanks to the particularly big feed chute the juice can be extracted from the whole
fruits or vegetables, whereas certain types require additional processing in the form
of e.g. peeling, removing seeds, cutting. While preparing fruits and vegetables take
into account the instructions and data included in the table below.
Thin-skinned fruit and vegetables do not require peeling. You can clean them
gently with a clean sponge to remove any dirt or wax coating.
Thick skins from e.g. lemons, oranges or pineapples must be removed.
Fruits with large seeds and stones, such as mango and papaya and other stone
fruits, should have them removed to avoid damage to sieve knives.
Seeds from some fruits can have a bitter taste. Remove the seeds before
extraction of juice from such fruits.
Cut large fruits and vegetables into smaller pieces. Cone-shaped vegetables and
fruits, such as carrots, should be inserted with the thin end first.
Some food cannot be processed in the juice extractor due to hardness (eg. coconuts).

Tips and recommendations
When preparing juice from different kinds of fruits and vegetables, it can be helpful
to combine them based on their characteristics and in various configurations.
For example, when juicing apples and oranges, first juice the soft fruit (oranges) then
the hard one (apples). This helps make the best juice possible.
When extracting juice from fresh herbs, e.g. mint or parsley, insert them into the juice
extractor between pieces of fruits and vegetables to achieve the best effect . If there is
only a small amount of herbs, insert them together with pieces of fruits or vegetables.
Fruits containing starches (banana, papaya, fig, avocado, mango etc.) are difficult to
juice (the generated mousse can clog the sieve). Such fruits may be prepared in a
food processor or blender. However, if a given juice flavour requires banana taste,
insert bananas into the juice extractor as the first or second piece of fruit. Mixing with
other fruit juices will help the banana nectar to flow more easily, but may sometimes
result in foaming.
Small fruits such as grapes or strawberries should be juiced in bunches, not
individually. This will provide best juicing results.

- 36 -
Remember that red beets will colour all other fruits and vegetables. Always juice
beets after finishing all other juices to avoid undesired colouring.
Apple juice quickly turns brown when exposed to air. Add just a hint of lemon juice to it.
Juice should be served right after squeezing, as with time it will lose taste and
nutritional value.
Never insert ice cubes or frozen fruits to the juice extractor.
Extracting juice from fruits and vegetables
CAUTION!
Never operate the juice extractor when the accessories are properly
mounted but no food products have been inserted.
Place the proper juice jug under the juice extraction nozzle.
Plug the device into the single, grounded socket.
Press the green switch.
Fill the feed chute tray with the ready fruit and vegetables and slowly, by small
portions, push with the plunger in the feed chute in the cover.
Slide the plunger, with a gentle push, on the feed chute. To maximize the juice
extraction, move the plunger down slowly. If pushed too hard the juice amount
will be reduced, and the device may be damaged.
WARNING! Hazard of injury!
Do not push the fruit or vegetables with your fingers.
Always use the plunger provided!
The juice extracted from fruit or vegetables flows through the juice extraction
nozzle and is collected in the jug. The pulp is separated and accumulated in the
pulp container.
Add fruit or vegetables until the juice bowl or the pulp container is full.
Remember to always place the jug under the juice extraction nozzle when extracting
the juice. When the jug is full and needs to be removed, close the juice extraction
nozzle and reopen it when the jug is replaced.

- 37 -
Watch the pulp container filling level. When the container is full switch off the
device and empty the container.
CAUTION!
The overfilled pulp container may cause the device to malfunction.
If the pulp flowing out reaches the motor body it may cause damage.
Always watch and regularly empty the pulp container!
When the juice is extracted from all prepared food leave the device on for a few
more seconds to allow the last drops of juice leave the device.
When the juice extraction is completed switch off the extractor with the red switch.
Wait a few seconds until the motor stops completely. Only then unplug the device
(remove the plug from the socket!) and disassemble for cleaning.
WARNING!
Remember to keep the device unplugged if not in use,
or in cleaning, or when removing or placing its parts.
6. Cleaning
WARNING!
Disconnect the device from the power supply
(unplug!) before cleaning.
Never clean the device with use of water jet!
Be careful and do not let the water into the device.
Cleaning
oAlways clean the device after its use.
oTo clean the device immediately after its use, disassemble it in the following order:

carefully take out the sieve from the juice bowl,
remove the adapter ring from the juice bowl,
remove the juice bowl from the motor base.
oWash thoroughly the juice bowl, adapter ring, lid, feed chute tray, pulp container and
plunger under running water with a mild cleaning agent. Next, rinse with clean water.
oPlace the sieve under running water and clean the outside of the sieve using the
appropriate plastic brush. Next, clean the inside of the sieve by brushing it counter
clockwise to remove the pulp.
Tip: if the fruit pulp sticks to the sieve or dried out, soak the sieve in the hot water
for 5 to 10 minutes.
oTo ensure that all pulp that could block the sieve have been removed, examine the
sieve under a light source.
WARNING! Danger of injury!
The knives in the sieve are very sharp.
To avoid injury, do not touch them with bare hands.
oBefore reassembly, carefully wipe down all the cleaned parts or leave them to dry
thoroughly.
CAUTION!
