DISASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Press the machine to STOP and then unplug the
Slow Juicer.
2. Make sure the flow juice spout is in the closed
position. Remove the juice container.
3. Unlock the cover by twisting it counterclockwise and
then remove from the juicing bowl. Remove the food
pusher from the cover.
4. Remove auger, strainer assembly and then
juicing bowl.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure your Slow Juicer is properly assembled.
(See Assembly Instructions, page 4.)
2. Plug the power cord into a 120V electrical outlet.
3. Wash all selected fruits and vegetables.
4. Place fruits and vegetables into the feed tube with
use of the pusher. Larger items can be added to the
feed tube by lifting the hopper cap and placing
directly on the plate hopper to juice.
5. While many fruits and vegetables will not need
cutting, any item with a diameter larger than 2¾
inches will need to be cut.
6. Press ON when ready to begin.
REVERSE: Use this when needing to clear the auger
to avoid clogging of the juicing area.
7. The juice will flow into the juice container and the
pulp will accumulate in the pulp container.
8. When finished juicing, press the STOP switch to stop
the motor.
9. If the machine suddenly shuts down while operating,
press the STOP switch first and then press the
REVERSE button. To make the food in the auger
come up, release and then press the ON switch.
Repeat 3 times.
a) When the machine is in reverse, gently press the
lid to prevent the lid from becoming loose.
b) If the machine is still not working, disassemble it
and then wash before trying again..
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Do not immerse the motor base in water or spray it with
water. Clean only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth
or paper towel. Use any liquid dishwashing detergent,
but do not use any products containing ammonia or
scouring powders, as these products will dull, scratch or
mar the finish.
For easy cleanup, remove excess pulp from the juice
strainer and the lid after each use. Vegetables and fruits
will harden if left to dry on the unit parts, making it
harder to clean.
1. Unplug juicer and carefully take it apart, following
Disassembly Instructions on this page.
2. Rinse all removable parts with cold water.
3. Wash the pulp container, juice container, cover,
pusher, feed tube with hopper and juice strainer
assembly in hot, sudsy water, or on top rack of
dishwasher. Do not use a metal brush or pad.
4. Towel-dry all parts.
5. Any other servicing should be performed by an
authorized service representative.
TIPS AND HINTS
• All nuts must be soaked prior to juicing. See chart on
page 7 for details.
• When making mixed juices and nut "milks," it is best to
have the juice spout in the closed position to allow the
juice/milk to self-mix prior to dispensing.
• Extracted juice captures about 95% of the nutrients
from fresh fruits and vegetables. Drinking extracted
juice is a fast and efficient way for your body to digest
and absorb all of those nutrients. Digesting whole
fruits can take about an hour; extracted juices take only
15 minutes.
• Freshly extracted juices are an excellent aid in
weight management and in cleanses, which rid the
body of toxins.
• Always use fresh, organic and seasonal produce.
Organic produce is grown without synthetic fertilizers
and chemicals, which is very important when juicing
whole foods. Buying foods in season is considerably
less expensive than purchasing off-season, and flavors
are much better.
• Wash all fruits and vegetables immediately after
purchasing and store them in the refrigerator. This way
they are ready to juice at any time.
• Always juice fresh fruits and vegetables as soon as
possible after purchasing. The longer produce is held,
the more nutrients are lost.
• Fresh juices should be consumed immediately.
They lose nutrients as they sit.
• Certain fruits should be peeled before juicing. Examples
are pineapples, melons, mangoes, papayas, citrus – any
fruit with skin that you cannot eat. Also remove all pits
and hard seeds from peaches, cherries, mangoes, etc.
• Citrus fruit juice is delicious and creamy, and rich
in nutrients.
• If cucumbers are waxy, peel them before juicing.
