Setup and Assembly

Follow these steps to correctly assemble your juicer before first use:

1. Place the motor unit on a clean, stable, and flat surface. Ensure it is away from the edge of the counter.
2. Align the drum with the motor unit base and rotate it clockwise until it locks securely into place.
3. Insert the EasyClean filter into the drum, ensuring it sits firmly.
4. Place the auger (pressing screw) into the center of the filter, pushing it down until it clicks into position.
5. Attach the feeding chute assembly onto the top of the drum, aligning the arrows and twisting until it locks. The safety system will prevent operation if not correctly aligned.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to extract juice from your ingredients:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly. For ingredients with hard pits (e.g., peaches, cherries) or large seeds (e.g., apples), remove them before juicing. While the XL chute can handle whole items, cutting larger or fibrous ingredients into smaller pieces (e.g., celery, leafy greens) can improve efficiency and juice yield.
2. Position Containers: Ensure the juice carafe is placed under the juice outlet and the pulp carafe under the pulp outlet.
3. Plug In: Connect the power cord to a suitable electrical outlet.
4. Start Juicing: Turn the control switch to the "ON" position. The motor will start.
5. Feed Ingredients: Slowly feed the prepared fruits and vegetables into the feeding chute. Use the provided pusher to gently guide the ingredients down. Do not force ingredients or apply excessive pressure, as this can strain the motor.
6. Reverse Function: If ingredients become jammed or the juicer appears to be struggling, switch the control to the "REVERSE" position for a few seconds. This will rotate the auger in the opposite direction to clear blockages. Then, switch back to "ON" to resume juicing.
7. Collect Juice: The fresh juice will flow into the juice carafe, and the dry pulp will be expelled into the pulp carafe.
8. Finish Juicing: Once all ingredients have been processed, turn the control switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the appliance from the power outlet.

3. Filter Cleaning: Use the provided cleaning brush to remove any pulp residue from the EasyClean filter. Its design without fine mesh makes it easier to clean compared to traditional filters.
