Fig.11
TipsforJuicing
Cutfooditemsintosmallpiecesforoptimal
extraction.
DonotplaceiceorfrozenfruitintotheJuice
Press.Donotpushthefooddownwithexcessive
force.Thefoodpusherisdesignedtogently
pushfooddownthechuteiffoodbecomes
stuck.
Insertfoodataregularspeed,allowingallthe
pulptobeextracted.Formaximumefciency,
donotrushthisprocess.
Whenjuicingleafygreensorwheatgrass,it
issuggestedthatyoumixitwithfruitsorother
hardvegetablesforoptimalresults.Juicenuts
onlywithotherfoodssuchassoakedsoybeans
orliquids.Checktherecipesattheendofthe
operatinginstructionsforideas.
Thejuicefromfreshfruitandvegetablesishigh
innutritionalcontent.Juicefromfreshfruitand
vegetablesisanimportantpartofabalanced
diet.
Whenselectingfruitandvegetablesforjuicing,
alwaysselectfreshandwellripenedspecimens.
Freshfruitandvegetablescarrymoreavour
andjuicethanthosethatarenotproperly
ripened.Juiceisbestconsumedwhenfreshly
madeasthisiswhenitsvitaminandmineral
contentishighest.
YourJuicePresscanhandlemostvarietiesoffruit
andvegetables.Ifusingfruitwithhard,inedible
skin(i.e.watermelons,pineapple,mangoes
etc.)alwayspeeltheskinbeforeplacinginthe
JuicePress.Theskinofcitrusfruitshouldalso
beremovedbeforefruitisplacedintheJuice
Press.Forbettertastingcitrusjuice,alsoremove
theinnerwhitepeelfromthefruit.Fruitswith
stonesorhardseeds(i.e.mangoes,nectarines,
apricots,andcherries)shouldbepittedbefore
juicing.Asmallamountoflemoncanbeadded
toapplejuicetopreventthejuicebrowning.
TheJuicePressisnotsuitableforjuicingvery
hardandstarchyfruitsorvegetablessuchas
sugarcane.Whenjuicingfruitandvegetables
ofdifferentconsistencyitmayhelptojuice
differentcombinations,i.e.juicesoftfruitrst,(i.e.
oranges)thenfollowwithhardfruit(i.e.apples).
Thiswillhelpyouachievemaximum
juiceextraction.Ifjuicingherbsorleafy
vegetables,wrapthemtogethertoforma
bundlebeforeplacingintheJuicePressor
combinethemwithotheringredientsonlow
speed.
NOTE: The Juice Press will only function
correctly if all parts have been assembled
correctly, the hopper is in position.

twistthebrushleftandrighttoremovethe
pulpfromthestrainer.Youwillneedtouse
thesmallbrushprovidedtocleantheinside
ofthestrainer,thisshouldalsobedoneunder
runningwater.(seeFig.12)
Fig.12
Iftheholesareblocked,soakthelterbasket
inhotwaterwith10%lemonjuicetoloosenthe

Tips:
Ifthestrainercannotbecleanedimmediately
afteruse,soakthelterbasketinhotsoapy
waterimmediatelyafterjuicingiscomplete.If
pulpislefttodryonthestrainer,itmayclog

partscanbesoakedin10%lemonjuiceand
waterortheycanbecleanedwithanon
abrasivecleaner.Donotsoakthelterbasket

HelpfulHints
Followthesesuggestionstoobtainthebestresults
fromyourJuicePress.
•Donotplaceanyfruitorvegetablesinyour
JuicePressuntilpowerisswitchedonandthe
motorisspinning.
•Donotusebananasoravocadosastheydo
notcontainjuiceandwillclogtheappliance.
Addthemseparatelyinablender.
•AllowJuicePresstorunforafewseconds
beforecommencingjuicing.
•Anyfruitorvegetablethatwilltthechute
canbeputthroughwhole.Theonlytimeit
isnecessarytocutiswhensomethingistoo
large.Thenitshouldbecutintolargeenough
piecestotinthechute.
•Removelargepitssuchaspeach,mango,
etc.,astheywilldamagetheappliance.
•DonotforcefoodintotheJuicePress;allow
foodtopassthroughslowlyandsteadilyusing
thepusher.
•LettheJuicePressrunforafewseconds
beforeswitchingofftoallowanyexcess
juicetobeextractedfromthepulp.Once
switchedoff,waituntiltheappliancehas
cometoacompletestandstillandhasfully
cooledbeforedisassembling.
•Wedonotrecommendusingoverripefruit
asitwillleavetoomuchpulpinthelterand
clogtheappliance.
•Donotpourliquidsintotheapplianceatany
timeunlessyouarefollowinginstructionsfor
makingsoy,rice,ornutmilk.
•Whenjuicingherbsorwheatgrass,wrap
theminlargerleafedvegetablessuchas
spinach,cabbage,etc.,andfollowbyafruit
orvegetablethatcontainsanabundanceof
juicesuchaspineapple,apple,etc.
•Whenusingsmallorthinfruitsorvegetables,
addmoreofthematthesametime.For
example,insert2or3carrotsatatimeinto
thechuteforbestresults.
•Fibrousvegetablessuchasceleryanddenser
vegetablessuchasbeetsshouldbechopped
andfedslowlyintothechutetoreduce
clogging.
