JUICING PREPARATION
1. Prepare the produce to be juiced. This
includes cleaning and breaking or cutting
into suitable size feeding portions.
Generally, for any material, if the produce
has the tendency to plug or jam the feed-
ing tube, requiring additional pressure to
engage auger, then the amount is too
large and should be reduced. When
preparing the wheatgrass, the length of
the grass should not exceed 4 inches.
2. Assemble the funnel to the feeder tube
of the body.
3. Place bowls under the green attachment
body to receive the juice and pulp.
JUICING
1. Turn on the juicer.
2. When juicing wheatgrass, feed no more
than about a 3/4 inch diameter bundle at
one time. For all other materials, try to
avoid excessively large feeding portions
that might jam the feeder tube of the
body. Generally, LESS IS BETTER. For all
materials, feed the thicker or stiffer parts
down for engagement with the auger. DO
NOT EXCLUDE THE STALKS; they help clear
JUICING PREPARATION
out the chamber. Note: To minimize wear
to internal parts, JUICER SHOULD NOT BE
LEFT RUNNING WHILE NOT JUICING.
3. Using the green tamper, push the juic-
ing material down the feeding tube and
into the auger using an up and down
motion. When juicing wheatgrass, it may
take a few seconds for the wheatgrass to
engage the auger, signified by a distinctive
"growling" sound. Most other materials
will process more quickly. NOTE: Do not
feed any additional wheatgrass material
into the chamber until the "growling"
sound is heard, indicating that the body
chamber is now empty. Whenever the pro-
cessing does not occur in a timely manner
(more than about 10 seconds), introduc-
tion of a small piece of pulp should be
used to clear the chamber before proceed-
ing. NOTE: Overfeeding of the juicing
material will result in additional stress on
the parts and can stall the motor.
4. In case of any unusual sounds, smells,
heated pulp or motor stall, turn off the
juicer immediately. Disassemble parts,
rinse, inspect and reassemble.
5. Introduction of the pulp through the
juicer for a SECOND PASS will produce
about 10% to 15% more yield. With
wheatgrass, introduce no more than about
a 2 inch piece of pulp at one time. NOTE:
Additional passes are generally non-pro-
ductive, and are not recommended.
DISASSEMBLY & CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Disassemble parts in reverse order of
assembly.
2. Rinse all parts, clean them with the
cleaning brush using dish detergent, re-
rinse and inspect. NOTE: The screen insert's
screen will probably require more intense
brushing inside and out to loosen debris,
depending on the material juiced.
3. Rinse the hole in the back of auger.
Clean hole with small bottle brush, if nec-
essary, to loosen debris. Place auger with
hole-end down and all other parts in a dry-
ing rack to air dry.
4. NOTE: All of the green attachment parts
are dishwater safe (upper shelf). The
screen attachment's screen may require
additional brushing and rinsing prior to
placement in dishwasher.
