Setup
- Before first use, wash all removable parts (juicing cones, pulp strainer, juice container, dust cover) in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
- Place the power base on a stable, flat surface.
- Place the clear juice container onto the power base, ensuring it is seated correctly.
- Insert the pulp strainer into the juice container.
- Select the appropriate juicing cone (small for lemons/limes, large for oranges/grapefruits) and place it onto the shaft in the center of the pulp strainer.
- Ensure the appliance is unplugged before assembly.
Operating Instructions
- Ensure the juicer is properly assembled and plugged into a standard electrical outlet.
- Cut citrus fruit in half.
- Place one half of the fruit, cut-side down, onto the juicing cone.
- Press down firmly on the fruit. The motor will automatically start, and the cone will begin to rotate, extracting juice. The cone features an auto-reversing action for maximum juice extraction.
- Continue pressing and juicing until all desired juice is extracted.
- Release pressure to stop the motor.
- Lift the fruit off the cone. The pulp will collect in the pulp strainer.
- Repeat the process with remaining fruit halves until the desired amount of juice is collected in the container. The clear container has easy-to-read measurement markings.
- Once juicing is complete, unplug the appliance.

Adjustable Pulp Control
The juicer features an adjustable pulp control mechanism, allowing you to customize the amount of pulp in your juice.
- The pulp strainer has a dial or lever (depending on model variation) that can be adjusted to control the size of the openings.
- For less pulp, select a finer setting (smaller openings).
- For more pulp, select a coarser setting (larger openings).
- Adjust the setting before beginning to juice.
