The PURE JUICER has a brushed stainless steel exterior and an
aluminum chassis.
To maintain the brushed finish never use steel wool or an
abrasive pad like green scrubbing pads. These will scratch the
stainless steel surface and mar the finish. Only use cleaning
pads recommended for stainless steel and aluminum. Always
wipe with the grain. Never wipe with a circular motion. To avoid
scratching the brushed finish, never set the feed tube, cutter
or any metal parts on top of the juicer, or any metal parts on
top of the juicer.
Bleach is the most effective cleaner (followed by hydrogen
peroxide) of tannin deposits on stainless steel. Both bleach
and hydrogen peroxide work the same way; they dissolve
organic bonds. If the stainless steel parts have a heavy tannin
buildup that cannot be removed with hydrogen peroxide; mix
360-720ml / 1.5-3 cups bleach into 12 liters / 3 gallon water
to make a 3-6% bleach solution in a 20 liter / 5 gallon bucket.
Soak the parts till the tannins dissolve (approximately 12-24
hours) and rinse thoroughly in cold water until clean; the parts
should come clean with no scrubbing required.
Because bleach off-gases chlorine, use it with great care and
only in a well-ventilated area. Wear gloves, do not inhale, and,
if possible, store the soaking bucket outside or on a porch.
