Setup Instructions

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and ensure all listed items are present.
2. Assemble Twin Gears: Insert the stainless steel twin gears into the juicing chamber. Ensure they are properly aligned and interlocked.
3. Attach Juicing Screen: Select the desired juicing screen (fine or coarse) and attach it over the twin gears. For most juicing, the fine screen is recommended.
4. Secure Front Casing: Place the front casing over the gears and screen, then secure it by closing the plastic prongs or latches until it clicks into place.
5. Install Outlet Adjusting Knob: Twist the outlet adjusting knob onto the end of the front casing. Adjust its tightness based on the produce being juiced (tighter for harder produce, looser for softer produce).
6. Position Drip Tray and Juice Pitcher: Place the drip tray and glass juice pitcher beneath the juice outlet.
7. Attach Hopper: Place the feeding hopper onto the top of the juicer. The juicer will not operate if the hopper is not correctly attached due to the safety switch.

Operating Instructions

1. Prepare Produce: Wash and cut fruits and vegetables into pieces small enough to fit into the feeding chute. Remove any hard pits or large seeds.
2. Power On: Plug in the juicer and turn the power switch to the "ON" position.
3. Feed Produce: Slowly feed the prepared produce into the feeding chute. Use the plastic plunger to gently push the produce down. Never use your fingers or other utensils to push food into the chute.
4. Monitor Juice and Pulp: The fresh juice will flow into the glass pitcher, and the dry pulp will exit through the pulp outlet.
5. Use Reverse Function: If the juicer jams or struggles with particularly fibrous produce, switch the juicer to the "REVERSE" setting for a few seconds to clear the blockage, then switch back to "ON".
6. Power Off: Once juicing is complete, turn the power switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the unit.

Tips for Best Results:

• For leafy greens, feed them in small batches or alternate with harder produce to maximize juice extraction.
• Adjust the outlet knob for optimal pressure: tighter for hard vegetables like carrots, looser for soft fruits.
• Juice harder produce first, then softer produce, to help push through any remaining pulp.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning is essential to maintain the performance and longevity of your Greenstar Elite Juicer. All parts that come into contact with food should be cleaned immediately after each use.

1. Disassemble: Unplug the juicer. Remove the feeding hopper, front casing, twin gears, and juicing screen.
2. Rinse Immediately: Rinse all removable parts under warm running water to prevent pulp from drying and sticking.
3. Use Cleaning Brush: Utilize the provided cleaning brush to thoroughly scrub the twin gears and juicing screens. The brush is designed to reach small crevices and remove stubborn pulp.
4. Wash with Soap: Wash all removable parts with warm, soapy water.
5. Rinse and Dry: Rinse all parts thoroughly to remove soap residue and allow them to air dry completely before reassembling or storing.
6. Wipe Main Body: Wipe the main motor body with a damp cloth. Never immerse the main motor body in water.
