11. Do not let cord hang over edge or table or counter, come into contact with sharp
edges, or touch hot surfaces.
12. Do not pull on power cord to disconnect.
13. Always place the appliance on a rm and stable surface when not in use.
14. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Chefman may cause re,
electric shock, or injury.
15. Never use abrasive cleaning agents or abrasive cloths when cleaning the unit.
16. Do not use ngers to scrape food away from the cutting blade while the appliance
is plugged in. Serious injury may result.
17. Use the unit only when it is completely assembled.
18. Do not leave the juicer unattended while the unit is running.

21. When juicing heavy loads (i.e. large amounts of dense foods like carrots or beets),
do not operate the juicer for more than 40 seconds at a time and let it cool down
sufciently afterwards. WARNING: The cutting blade continues to rotate for a short
period of time after the juicer is switched off. To avoid the risk of injury, avoid the
blade when the unit is still rotating.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way or force it into the outlet.
This could result in injury or electric shock.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of entanglement or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords
are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable
power-supply extension cord is used:
Do not place appliance on
stovetop or other heatable
surface, even if stovetop is not
on. Doing so is a re hazard.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE POWER CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR
IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE FIRST USE
For best results, follow these steps before using your Pro Juicer for the rst time.
1. Disassemble the unit following the directions on p. 8.
2. Check that all parts and accessories are accounted for before throwing away
any packaging materials. Note that the black cover on the spout is for protection
during shipping. It should not remain on the unit when juicing and may be thrown
away.
3. Read and remove any stickers except for the rating label, which should remain on
the unit.
4. Carefully hand wash removable parts before rst use to remove any shipping dust.
WARNING: The metal lter has sharp blades so be careful when handling and cleaning.
HOW TO ASSEMBLE YOUR JUICER
STEP 1:
Set the unplugged base on a
at, rm work surface. (There
are suction cups on the bottom
to help it stay put.) NOTE: The
Pro Juicer is designed tilt
slightly toward the juice spout
to maximum juice ow.
STEP 2:
Lower the lter holder onto
the base with the spout on the
same side as the safety clamp.
STEP 3:
Press the metal lter into the
holder. The ribs on the bottom
of the lter should align with the
driving shaft. This may require
turning the lter until it snaps
into position.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 4:
Place the pulp container in
position by tilting it slightly,
slipping the straighter
top edge underneath the
overhang of the
lter holder,
then lining up
the bottom
with the base.
STEP 6:
Put the lid on the juice pitcher
(align the semicircular tab
with the handle). Position
the Juicer's spout just inside
the large opening of the
pitcher lid. (Be sure the
black spout protector is
removed.) The handle
of the pitcher will
be facing front.
STEP 5:
Put the lid on the unit,
then lock it on by lifting
up the safety clamp and
pushing it toward the
feed tube until it snaps
into place.
STEP 7:
Have the pusher handy
to slide into the feed
tube. Note that there is a
groove in the pusher that
must align with a ridge in
the feed tube. Face the
groove toward the spout.

When ready to juice, assemble your juicer following these steps.
HOW TO DISASSEMBLE YOUR JUICER
To disassemble the Pro Juicer, follow these easy steps.
1. If pulp container is still in place—it does not lock on—remove
it by tilting it down and pulling it away from unit.
2. Remove the pusher from the feed tube, then unlock the safety clamp by pulling
it down and right.
3. Remove the lid, then remove the lter holder and metal lter together. Position
one hand under the spout and the other hand on the other side of unit and pull
up rmly. Carefully tap any excess pulp into the pulp container. CAUTION: Do not
use ngers to scrape away any pulp as the blades in the lter are sharp.
4. Carefully remove the metal lter.
HOW TO USE YOUR JUICER
Once assembled, the juicer is simple to operate.
1. Wash your fruits and vegetables to be juiced. Many fruits and vegetables do not
need to be peeled. If necessary, cut into pieces small enough to t in the feed tube
(see the table on p. 10 for prep suggestions).
2. Ensure your juicer is correctly assembled (see directions p. 6), then plug the unit in.
3. Turn the control knob to your selected speed.
• Use Speed 1 (Low) for softer fruits and vegetables, such as watermelon,
grapes, cucumbers, tomatoes, and raspberries. Do not use with hard
vegetables. (See chart on p. 10 for more specic suggestions.)
• Use Speed 2 (High) for all types of fruits and vegetables.
4. With the motor running, place fruits and/or vegetables in batches into the feed tube.

5. Use the pusher to gently guide food down the tube. NOTE: There is a groove on
the pusher that must align with a ridge in the feed tube. CAUTION: Never use your
ngers or an object other than the pusher to push food into the juicer.
6. Juice will ow into the juice pitcher and the separated pulp will be ejected into the
pulp container. (Some very ne pulp may get through the lter.)
7. When your rst batch is juiced, remove the pusher while the unit is still running, add
more produce, and repeat. NOTE: When juicing heavy loads, do not operate the juicer
for more than 40 seconds at a time, and let it cool down sufciently between uses.
8. After you have processed all the ingredients, wait for the juice ow to stop, then
switch the appliance off and remove the pitcher. WARNING: The lter will continue
to spin briey after motor has turned off. Wait for it to stop before removing the
safety clamp.
9. The juice pitcher is designed to keep back the foam when pouring, so keep the lid
on while pouring if you want to reduce the foam in your juice glass.
10. Wait until the lter has stopped spinning before unlocking the safety clamp or
doing any disassembly or cleaning of the unit.

JUICING TIPS
These tips will help you maximize the quality and quantity of your juice output.
Use fresh, ripe produce. In-season produce will produce the most juice with the best
avor and highest nutrient content. Avoid fruit with low water content, such as
bananas, avocados, papayas, and gs. They’re best processed in a blender or food
processor instead of a juicer.
Leave thin peels and skins on. Only thick, inedible peels such as those of oranges,
melons, and pineapples need to be removed before juicing. (Pineapple cores should
also be removed.)
Remove pits and stones before juicing. Nectarines, peaches, mangoes, plums, and
cherries must be pitted before juicing. Small seeds, such as apple seeds, will be ltered
out with the pulp.
Leave some vegetables whole. Depending on their size, many cucumbers, carrots,
tomatoes, and apples can be processed whole. Put carrots in the feed tube stem end
down.
Bundle leafy greens for processing. To get the best extraction from leafy greens,
roll a few into a bundle and push them through stem side up.
Push the feed tube pusher down slowly. Juicing slowly ensures you’ll extract the most
juice.
Start with softer produce. When juicing a variety of ingredients, start with the softer
produce on Speed 1 (Low), then increase the speed to Speed 2 (High) for harder
produce. To inhibit browning, add a few drops of lemon juice to the pitcher before
juicing; this is especially helpful with apple, juice, which oxidizes quickly.
Enjoy your juice right away. Fresh-made juice loses avor and nutrients over time.
If juicing ahead, store the juice airtight in the fridge.
Don’t chuck the pulp. High in ber and nutritious, it can be used in soups, scrambled
eggs, mufns, or other baked goods. Alternatively, it makes a great addition to garden
compost.
Line the pulp container with a used produce bag for easy cleanup. If you plan to use
the pulp for compost, line it with a biodegradable compost bag.
