Refilling The Cookie Press

Cover counter-clockwise. This will unlock the Tube Cover and
the Cookie Disc or Tip. Remove the Disc or Tip Assembly and
set all parts aside.
3. Hold the Handle of the Motor Body with one hand. With the
other hand turn the Tube counter-clockwise until the arrow
from the Motor Body lines up with the arrow on the Tube, the
unlock position.
4. Remove the Tube from the Motor Body. Pull the Cam Shaft
with Press Disc out of the Motor Body. Rinse and dry
thoroughly.
CAUTION: Avoid any contact of any liquid with the inside of

clean the Cam Disc before refilling the Cooking Press. If so,
first remove the Cam Disc from the Motor Body. Using the two
Grips on the Cam Disc, firmly turn the Disc counter-clockwise
until the Disc lifts out easily.
