What’s included
Assembly guide
Before first use
Before using your juicer for the first time, please take a moment to perform the steps below.
UNPACK
Open the box and remove the appliance with its various components, placing all parts on a flat, level surface.
SEPARATE
A few parts will be packed together. Separate them using the following 3 steps (see image):
- a. Lifting up, remove Grinding Assembly and Rotating Bowl Brush together from the Juice Bowl.
- b. Detach Rotating Bowl Brush by moving it down.
- c. Lifting up, remove the Auger from Juicing Screen.
CLEAN
Immerse all detachable parts and accessories (not the base) in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
Clean the outside of the base with a clean, damp cloth.
WARNING: Never submerge the Motor Base in water or any other liquid.
Usage instructions
- Prepare foods for juicing, and make sure nonjuiceable foods are not used.
- Remove any hard seeds, pits, and skin – for example, peel and pits should be removed from oranges, lemons, grapefruits, and melons.
- Cut foods into smaller pieces if needed to fit into the feed chute.
- Do not attempt to process thick or hard foods that don’t contain any juice to extract (for example, it is not recommended to process bananas, avocados, coconuts, or similar hard foods, since these may damage the motor).
- Before plugging the power cord into an outlet, make sure the power switch is in the “OFF” position.
- The power switch has three settings. Pressing the power switch to the “ON” position activates the motor and starts making juice; pressing the power switch to “OFF” turns off the machine; and “REV” means reverse rotation, only used when something is stuck and you need to unclog the unit.
- Make sure the juice and Pulp Containers are in their proper positions.
Juicing tips
PROPER PRODUCE PREP
- Prepare fruit and veggies before inserting them into the juicer:
- Clean produce properly. Rinse with lukewarm water, produce wash, or water and apple cider vinegar.
- eel or remove skin as needed. Foods with thick or hard skin must be peeled before being put into the juicer.
- Remove rind from all citrus fruits before juicing.
- Remove large pits and seeds from stone fruit before juicing. Stone fruit may be used only if the seeds or pits have been removed. Fruit with hard cores must be pitted. The cores of peach, plum, mango, and apricot should not be put into the feed chute, to avoid any potential malfunction.
- Chop food items down to the right size – small enough to fit easily into the feed chute, without having to force pieces down with the Food Pusher.
- Foods with less moisture and hard fiber: Cut into slices.
- Leafy vegetables and foods with long, hard fiber (such as celery and kale): Cut the stems into 4 inch pieces and then roll up the leaves well.
- For efficient juicing, alternate feeding soft foods and hard foods into the feed chute. For example, follow leafy greens with an apple slice, or an orange with a carrot. The harder produce will help with processing the softer produce and extract more juice.
- Frozen food items can be put in the juicer after being defrosted.
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM: PARTS ARE DIFFICULT TO DISASSEMBLE
Solution: After finishing juicing, in order to detach and clean parts more easily, continue to run the juicer for about 30 seconds without adding any additional food in order to process any food that might be stuck in the Auger and Juicing Screen. Another tip: after you are done extracting juice, pouring some water in the feed chute to clean it can help make it easier to disassemble.

Solution: If the juicer is stuck and not operable, press the power switch to the “OFF” position. Then press the RESET switch, which is located at the bottom of the base (see image). Next, press and hold the power switch in the “REV” position for few seconds, then try operating again.
If this reverse function does not work, turn off the machine, unplug, and reassemble it, using the instructions given earlier in this guide. After reassembly, try turning on the machine to see if normal function has been restored.
PROBLEM: THE JUICER TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF JUICING.
If the motor overheats, the juicer will turn off. Solution: If the juicer is overheated and stops working, unplug it and allow it to cool down for at least fifteen minutes before attempting to use again.
