Proper Cleaning Lengthens the Lifespan of the Juice Extractor
● Since the GS extracts minerals, such as calcium, from the produce so well, we
recommend cleaning all of the juicer parts immediately after use to prevent mineral
build-up, which can cause problems.
● Completely disassemble the Pulp Discharge Casing and Twin Gear Housing
sections. Immerse them in water and clean them with the Cleaning Brush, which is
provided for your convenience.
● After cleaning the juice extractor, let it air-dry thoroughly.
To Remove Calcium and Mineral Deposits from the Twin Gears
● After using the machine for some time, you may notice a calcium or mineral deposit
on the surfaces of the Twin Gear unit. To remove calcium or mineral deposits from
your Twin Gears: After juicing carrots, feed some of the carrot pulp back through the
machine and then add some granulated sugar (Ratio: one tablespoon of carrot pulp
to one or two teaspoons of granulated sugar). Alternate pulp and sugar several times
and then run the machine. Make sure to disassemble and thoroughly clean all of the
juicing parts.
Cleaning Green Star
● Make sure the machine is switched off and unplugged from the wall. Store the cord
in the Cord Storage Compartment.
● Because your Green Star Juicer extracts calcium and other minerals from the fruits
and vegetables, it is essential to wash your juicer parts immediately after use;
otherwise, mineral deposits may form and cause problems.
● Rinse and scrub your parts under warm running water and use a mild detergent to
clean the parts.
● Disassemble the juicer as shown on page 13-14 and immerse each component in
lukewarm water. Clean out all the pulp with the multipurpose Cleaning Brush
provided, using the thinner end to force out the pulp, which normally collects in the
Pulp Discharge Outlet.
● When using the Fine Screen, brush away from the corners, avoiding a build-up of
pulp, which will be difficult to remove later.
● Under no circumstances should you allow water to enter the main body of the
machine. Please refer to HELPFUL HINTS (page 20).
● Rinse all soapy water from the components; dry them thoroughly before they are
reassembled.
● You will notice that some of the inside surfaces may get stained during operation by
natural pigments found in your vegetables. This is considered normal, and may not
be able to be removed.
● NEVER use harsh chemicals, such as bleach, to remove food stains from the juicer.
● NEVER drop any of the components, particularly the Twin Gears. Our warranty does
not cover accidental damage.
● Do not put any parts into the dishwasher.
