Setup and Assembly

Before first use, wash all detachable parts (except the motor base) in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.

1. Place the motor base on a dry, stable, and flat surface.
2. Insert the stainless steel filter basket into the juice collector/base, ensuring it is seated firmly.
3. Place the pulp container under the pulp outlet on the side of the juice collector.
4. Place the juicer cover onto the juice collector, aligning the feeding trough with the opening.
5. Lift the safety locking bar and secure it into the grooves on both sides of the juicer cover. Ensure it clicks into place, indicating the cover is securely locked. The juicer will not operate if the locking bar is not properly engaged.
6. Position the juice pitcher under the juice spout.

Operating Instructions

Prepare your fruits and vegetables:

• Wash all produce thoroughly.
• For fruits with hard skins (e.g., pineapple, melon, oranges), peel them before juicing.
• Remove large seeds or pits from fruits like peaches, cherries, etc.
• The 85mm wide feeding trough allows for whole fruits like apples to be juiced without pre-cutting, saving preparation time.

The 85mm wide feeding trough of the Sokany SK-190 juicer is designed to accommodate whole fruits, such as apples, minimizing the need for pre-cutting.

Juicing Process:

1. Ensure the juicer is correctly assembled and the safety locking bar is engaged.
2. Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet.
3. Turn the control dial to the desired speed setting:
   • Speed 1 (Low): Suitable for softer fruits and vegetables like oranges, grapes, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
   • Speed 2 (High): Ideal for harder fruits and vegetables such as apples, carrots, celery, and beets.
4. Gradually feed the prepared produce into the feeding trough using the food pusher. Do not force the food down, as this can strain the motor.
5. The fresh juice will flow into the juice pitcher, and the pulp will collect in the pulp container.
6. When finished juicing, turn the control dial to "0" (off) and unplug the appliance from the power outlet.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your juicer. Always unplug the juicer before cleaning.

Cleaning Instructions:

1. Turn the control dial to "0" and unplug the juicer.
2. Disassemble the juicer by releasing the safety locking bar and removing the juicer cover, filter basket, and pulp container.
3. Empty the pulp container and juice pitcher.
4. Rinse all detachable parts (juicer cover, filter basket, juice collector, pulp container, food pusher, juice pitcher) under running water immediately after use to prevent pulp from drying and sticking.
5. For thorough cleaning, wash these parts in warm, soapy water. The product care instructions state that these parts are dishwasher safe.
6. Use a cleaning brush (if provided) to clean the fine mesh of the stainless steel filter basket. This is crucial for efficient juicing.
7. Wipe the motor base with a damp cloth. Never immerse the motor base in water or any other liquid.
8. Dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling or storing.
