Troubleshooting-Operator CAUTION: NEVER REACH INTO MOVING PARTS TO CLEAR A JAM, NO MATTER HOW SIMPLE IT SEEMS. Citrus Juicer will not start. Citrus Juicer is not plugged into electrical outlet. Building circuit breaker has tripped. Juicing area door not closed. Optional counter top waste container not properly installed. Citrus Juicer is jammed.
Page 22
Troubleshooting-Operator Citrus Juicer stalls trying to squeeze a fruit. NOTE: Do not continue to process fruit if juicer is stalling more than once per case. Fruit has part of stem on it. Turn off Citrus Juicer. Remove fruit from Citrus Juicer and restart. Peel is too thick.
Page 23

Troubleshooting-Service Citrus Juicer will not start. Citrus Juicer is not plugged into electrical outlet. Building circuit breaker has tripped. Juicing area door not closed and locked.
