1. Cut the citrus fruit (oranges, lemons, grapefruits, limes) in half.
2. Place one half of the fruit onto the appropriate cone.
3. Lower the pressing lever firmly onto the fruit. The motor will activate automatically as pressure is applied.
4. Maintain pressure until all juice is extracted. The powerful and silent motor ensures efficient juicing.
5. Lift the lever to stop the motor.
6. Repeat the process for all fruit halves.
7. Once juicing is complete, place a glass under the anti-drip spout. Push the spout downwards to release the collected juice.
8. After dispensing, push the spout back upwards to close it and prevent further dripping.

Tip: For best results, use fresh, ripe citrus fruits at room temperature.
