CLEAN UP
Keeping your juicer clean is extremely important for both your health and the peak
performance of the machine. We recommend cleaning the juicer immediately after each
use, before food particles have a chance to dry out. However, if you want to juice
throughout the day in multiple sessions without disassembling the machine, completely
remove the Outlet Adjusting Knob, place a large bowl under both the Juice Outlet and the
Pulp Discharge Outlet, and pour about 16 ounces of water through the feeding chute
while the machine is running, before and after each juicing session. Make sure to
thoroughly clean the juicer after the last juicing session of the day.
1. Stains and Mineral Deposits
Colored stains and mineral deposits on parts are normal usage signs of a product.
But, to remove color stains and mineral deposits:
1) Stains
- NEVER use harsh chemicals such as bleach to remove food stains from the juicer.
- Use a 25%-50% white vinegar/water solution and soak the parts overnight. This may
be repeated if necessary.
- Juicing green honeydew or cantaloupe melons may also lighten stains.
2) Mineral Deposits
- Soak in a Baking soda solution
1. Mix 4 tablespoons of baking Soda with 2 cups (16 oz) of lukewarm water
2. Soak the parts in the solution of water and baking soda overnight to loosen the
mineral deposits and to remove stains. Wash with soap and water and use a hard
bristled brush to remove mineral deposit. Wipe with cloth to dry.
- Mineral Deposits may be removed from the tips of the Twin Gears by running soaked
almonds through the machine.
- Another excellent way to remove mineral scales is to soak the affected parts in a
pure vinegar bath overnight. This loosens the scaling and much of it can be brushed
off. Repeat as necessary.
2. The Screen
- Hold the screen under running water while brushing the pulp residue from inside the
screen first, and then the outside of the screen.
- For pulp that has been imbedded firmly in the holes of the screen, try soaking the
screen for a couple of hours in water after brushing away as much pulp as possible.
- You may also try using the DULL side of a table knife to rub along the inner surface
of the screen and then brushing from the outside with the Cleaning Brush.
3. The Main Body (Motor Unit)
To clean the motor unit of your juicer, position the front two legs over the edge of
the sink. With either the sink top sprayer, a spray bottle filled with water, or an empty
detergent bottle filled with water and equipped with its squirt-top, spray water directly
onto the front plate of the juicer where the drive shaft, mounting peg and free wheel
gear seats to remove pulp residue. Wipe any other exterior surfaces with a damp
cloth. DO NOT SUBMERGE THE MOTOR UNIT INTO WATER AT ANY TIME.
