Section 4: Installation and Setup
WARNING: Power must be supplied to the X-6 and EG-260 by a licensed electrician. Failure to do so may
result in serious personal injury due to electric shock or damage to the machine.
4.1 INSTALLATION
Inspect for physical damage, electrical damage, or any loose or bare wires. Make sure there are no loose nuts, bolts,
or any other fasteners.
Check for proper voltage before connecting any power to the machine.
Standard electrical supply for the X-6 and EG-260 is 1Ph 220V 50/60Hz.
Place a properly grounded electrical outlet close enough to the press so the cord from the motor will reach it
without the use of an extension cord. This outlet should be on a dedicated circuit protected by a 20 Amp breaker.
The grinder should be on a dedicated circuit separate from the press with a 20 Amp breaker.

4.3 SETUP - RACK STRAPS
Begin at either end of the press.
Take one rack strap and feed the hook shaped pins located on the sides of the racks through the holes of the strap
along the length of the unit. (See Fig 4.1)
Rotate the press to the next set of hook shaped pins and install the second strap. (See Fig 4.2)
Repeat this process until all four straps are installed.
The X-6 includes four rack straps. These straps are used to open the racks to the proper layer thickness.

4.4 SETUP - PRESS BAGS
Fig 4.3: Installing press bags over pins Fig 4.4: Attaching bags by Velcro
One full set of X-6 press bags consists of 3 pairs of bags; two pairs of end bags and one pair of middle bags. The end bags
have three grommet holes along the top edge that attach to the pins on the end racks. Opposite from the grommet side,
one end bag has a flap with a strip of hook velcro and the other has a strip of loop velcro on the inside of the bag. The
middle bag has a strip of loop velcro on the inside and a flap end with hook velcro.

Rotate the press area so the straight pins on the end racks are pointing up.
Start at one end of the press and take the end bag with the hook velcro flap and place it between the first two racks of the
press area with each grommet over its accompanying pin.
Install the middle bag between the following racks with the loop velcro side attaching to the end bags’ hook velcro flap.
Install the other end bag over the grommets on the opposite side of the racks and wrap the hook velcro flap from the
middle bag onto the loop velcro strip of the end bag.
Ensure the grommets of the end bags are each on a rack pin. Between every press rack should be a bag securely attached to
one another with velcro. (See Figures 4.3 and 4.4)

Rotate the press 90° so the bottom of the bags are at the top.
Start at one end and feed the cord through the hole in the end rack, through the grommet in the bottom of the first
bag, through the groove in the next rack and through the hole in the next bag. Continue threading the cord until the
other end rack is reached. (See Fig 4.5)
Pull the cord through the hole of the end rack and pull down tightly until the cord is firmly seated in the rack slot.
The tighter the cords are, the easier the dry cake will dump out when the press is rotated. (See Fig 4.6)
Rotate the press and repeat the steps to install the cord on the opposite side.

Section 5: Operation
DANGER: Never place hands, arms, or any foreign items into the grinder hopper, grinder chute, or grinder
housing during operation. Personal injury including lacerations and amputations, or
damage to the machine can occur.
NOTICE: All pits and large seeds should be removed from produce before grinding to prevent damage
to the machine.
NOTICE: Never overload the EG-260 grinder motor by forcing produce through as this will cause
unnecessary wear on the machine.
CAUTION: Safety glasses must be worn at all times during operation. Machine can run at a very high speed;
splatter and projectiles causing eye damage and irritation is possible.
NOTICE: Only stop the machine with the Emergency Stop button in the event of an emergency. The E-Stop
button stops the machine very rapidly and will cause unnecessary wear on the machine.
Before beginning, ensure proper setup has been completed. Make certain the press pomace hopper cover is in place before
grinding. Refer to previous pages for further instructions.
Plug in the machine. To power on grinder, pull out the red emergency stop button and press the green ‘Run’ button on the
Keypad. The grinder will return to the speed to which is was set the last time it was run.
The grinder should be freely turning in a counterclockwise direction with no interference or rubbing. If it is not, shut the
grinder o and contact Goodnature Customer service.
To change speed of grinder, use the up and down arrows on the keypad.
NOTE: The speed of the grinder is displayed in frequency (Hz) and not in rotations per minute (RPM). 30Hz ≈1725 RPM;
60Hz ≈3450 RPM. IMPORTANT: Run grinder at a minimum speed of 30Hz.
Once grinder is up to desired speed, drop produce in end of hopper chute. Use the Product Feeder to gently push the produce
down the chute. Never use excessive force or overload the motor. Push the product feeder until it contacts the triangular
shredder plate knob.

Section 5: Operation
Continue grinding produce until the bags are about 50-75% full. This will allow the slurry to move around during pressing
and not come up and out of the bag.
When grinding is complete, power o grinder by pressing the red ‘Stop’ button on the keypad. (Fig 5.1)
NOTE: When grinding is complete, there may be some produce collected behind and around the grinder disc, as well as in the
base of the hopper chute. This is normal and does not mean your machine is operating outside of specifications.

If the grinder is mounted to the X-6, the Pomace Hopper Cover needs to be removed before attempting to change the grinder
disc.
Unscrew the hopper knobs then remove the hopper chute.
Remove the shredder plate knob from the center of the grinder disc assembly.
Loosen but do not remove all eight retaining screws around the perimeter of the grinder disc.
Rotate the grinder disc slightly clockwise to free it from the retaining screws.
Attach desired grinder disc.
Rotate the grinder disc slightly counterclockwise so that the retaining screws move into the slots on the disc.
Tighten all screws. Do not over tighten and strip the threads on the grinder disc backing plate.
Replace and tighten the shredder plate knob.
Replace the hopper and hopper knobs.

Make sure all components are in place as described in Section 4: Installation and Setup.
Place press area in filling position (open and upright).
Make sure the juice tray is in place and a hose is connected to it using the provided hose clamp and gasket.
Use the Pomace Scoop to pull ground mash (pomace) from the pomace hopper into the bags.
As the bags fill, use the Cake Separator to evenly distribute pomace in each bag.
Check to make sure the directional control lever is in the neutral position.
Power on the hydraulic power by turning the rotary switch clockwise.
Pull the control lever away from the machine to begin closing the press.
The speed of the press can be controlled with the flow control valve located adjacent to the control lever. For more
detailed information on speed control, refer to Section 5.4: Adjusting Press Speed
NOTE: Juice will begin to rush out of the bag and into the juice tray. If the produce in the press bag starts to move up in the bag or out of
the top of the bag, slow the press down or put it in neutral to give it a chance to drain. The most eective method to pressing is a slow and
gradual increases in pressure. Rushing the press cycle can negatively eect yield and cause the press bag to burst. Refer to Section 9.2:
Improving Yield.

To retract the platens after pressing, push the control lever towards the machine.
Once the platen is fully retracted, place the directional control lever to the neutral position and rotate the power switch
counter-clockwise to de-energize the hydraulics.
Gently work the cake separator between the bag and the dry pomace cake on both sides of the cake on all layers. Be careful
not to wear the bottom and sides of the bags by forcefully jamming the cake separator into the bags.
Slide the juice tray out from underneath the racks so that you may turn the racks upside down to empty the pomace from
bags.
Place a catch container beneath the press area to catch the spent pomace.
Rotate the press area 180° and shake the bags to allow the cake to fall out.
Remove the catch container and dispose of the spent pomace.
Rotate the press area back to its upright position and slide the juice tray back under the press.
Re-load the press with more pomace for another pressing, or proceed to cleaning if finished for the day.
