WELCOME
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a Tribest®Solostar®-3C. This
bundle was especially created for those who want the freedom to juice with or
without electricity. The Solostar®-3C bundle includes the Solostar®-3 Single Auger
Juicer (SS-9113) and the Zstar®Manual Conversion Kit (Z-511). Now you can juice a
wide variety of fruits and vegetables in the comfort of your own kitchen or wherever
you are. You can also use your Solostar®-3C Juicer to make other delicious foods such
as frozen fruit sorbets, baby food, breadsticks, nut butters, pâtés, and much more!
The Solostar®-3 Juicer is the next generation of single auger juicers that unleashes the very
best nutrition that nature has to offer. The unique shape of Solostar®-3’s auger and
correspondent juicing screen provides greater performance than other single auger
juicers. The Solostar®-3’s single auger employs an advanced impeller press system that
rotates at a low 80 RPM and generates minimal heat while juicing, resulting in fresher
juice with minimal loss of the precious enzyme and vitamin content in the juice. The auger
and juicing screen are coupled with design improvements that make the Solostar®-3
easily extract more juice than its competitors.
Transform your Solostar®-3 Juicer into a manual juicer with the Zstar®Manual Conversion
Kit. There is no need to sacrifice your ability to make fresh fruit and vegetable juices when
you’re on the road or when electricity is not available. The manual conversion kit allows
you to take juicing on-the-go!
Be sure to carefully unpack your Solostar®-3C and check that all of the parts are there.
Also take the time to become familiar with your new juicer before you start juicing. It is
a good idea to disassemble and reassemble your Solostar®-3C a few times to become
familiar with how all of the parts fit together properly. Many accessories have been
included as standard parts to make your juicing experience easier and to enhance the
versatility of the food preparation capabilities.
We recommend that you wash all of the juicing parts (excluding the Main Body) with
warm water and mild detergent before you first use your Solostar®-3C Juicer. Now you are
ready to begin juicing with your Solostar®-3C Juicer. We hope you enjoy your Solostar®
experience, as it helps you embark on your journey to better nutrition and better health.
Please take the time to read through the entire operation manual for proper use and care
instructions. Following the instructions in this manual will ensure that your Solostar®-3C
Juicer serves you faithfully for many years to come.
