USE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Technical Characteristics
The unit comprises a body, a 18/10 stainless steel filter, a double threaded screw feeder and a heavy
cast iron ring treated with special resins.
USE
It is ideal for squeezing both unprocessed or boiled tomatoes and other fruit and vegetables suitable
for producing juices, purees and conserves.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Put the fruit or vegetables (without stones or stalks) into the hopper and press it into the body of the
machine using the stomper provided. The screw feeder, rotating about its axis will push it forward and
press it against the filter. The juice will come out of the holes in the filter and fall into the chute which
conveys it to the collection receptacle. The seeds and peels are eliminated through the small funnel
on the end of the filter. It is possible to put the seeds and skins back into the machine in order to
obtain an improved squeezing.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Before first use, wash all parts with hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry. To attach the tomato
squeezer it is recommended to dismantle it into its various components and to first attach the body
(1), then insert the drive unit (3), the screw feeder (7) and lastly the filter (9) and pressing firmly until
the ring (8) is positioned on the thread of the body (left hand thread). Finally, plug in the motor and
start it in order to completely tighten the ring. Screw on the hopper (12) and mount the chute (10)
and affix it with the brace (11).
USE AND MAINTENANCE NORMS
• Introduce the foodstuffs into the body using only the stomper provided.
• To facilitate the introduction of unprocessed tomatoes into the hopper it is advised
to invert the stomper and use the handgrip.
• Do not introduce fruit or vegetables containing stones or stalks.
• Avoid running the machine empty.
• After use, wash all parts of the machine, both internal and external,
with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly.
• Keep the drive unit lubricated.
MANUAL UNITS
Follow the assembly instructions enclosed. Mount assembled unit on the edge of a table or counter
more than two inches thick.
PREPARATION
Wash fruit or vegetables prior to processing. Cut into pieces small enough to fit into throat of
machine. Put the fruit or vegetables (without stones or stalks) into the hopper. Using the stomper,
press the fruit or vegetables into the body of the machine. You will need two bowls. Place one bowl
at the end of the filter to catch the waste material. Place the other bowl under the chute to catch the
juice. Only the juice and meat of the produce will process into the filter and fall into the chute. You
can put the seeds and skins back into the hopper for a second pressing to obtain additional juice.
HOW TO OPERATE
If you have a manual style unit, turn the handle and let the squeezer do the work.
If you have a unit that attaches to your electric meat grinder, follow the instructions above. If your
electric grinder has forward and reverse speeds, make sure it is in the FORWARD SPEED. Avoid run-
ning the machine empty.
CLEAN UP AND MAINTENANCE: After use, wash all parts of the machine, both internal and external,
with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Wash by hand. DO NOT put parts in the dishwasher. Keep
the DRIVE SHAFT (part #5) lubricated.
