HELPFUL HINTS
Obtain the best results from your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer
by following these helpful hints.
• Do not put any fruit or vegetables in your machine until power is turned on.
• Allow unit to run for at least 10 seconds before juicing.
• Do not force food into the juicer. Allow food to pass through slowly and steadily
using the pusher. You do not need to apply pressure unless the juicer starts to
vibrate. Then only a slightly harder push should bring it back to balance.
• Any fruit or vegetable that will fit the chute can be put through whole. The only
time it is necessary to cut is when something is too large. Then it should be cut
into large enough pieces to fit in the chute. Do not cut pieces too small.
• Remove large pits such as peach, mango, etc. as they will damage the blade
and possibly the unit.
• Cleaning can be made easy by placing a plastic bag inside the pulp collector
container. When you are done juicing, the bag can be lifted out and disposed
of easily leaving the pulp collector easier to clean.
• Let the Power Juicer run for a few minutes before turning off to allow any
excess juice to be extracted from the pulp. Once turned off it is quite normal
for the juicer to spin for a minute or so due to the very fine precision balancing
of this appliance. Wait until it is done spinning before disassembling.
• Do not use bananas or avocados as they do not contain juice and will clog
machine. Add them separately in a blender.
• We do not recommend using overripe fruit as it will leave too much pulp in
the filter and clog the machine.
• Do not pour liquids into the machine at any time.

CLEANING YOUR JUICER
• Turn off the power switch and wait until the motor completely stops.
• With dry hands, unplug the power cord from electrical outlet.
• Disassemble the machine. (See disassembly instructions.)
• Clean all other parts in warm, soapy water. A mild detergent is recommended. Rinse
well and dry thoroughly. All components are dishwasher safe with the exception of
the base. Do not use in European Import or a Commercial dishwasher.
• Wipe base with a soft damp cloth or sponge. Do not submerge base in water. Do
not spray with water or any other liquid. Base is not dishwasher safe.
• To clean the filter and blade, hold them under warm running water. Use a
soft-bristled dish washing brush gently to completely clean pulp from filter. Rinse the
filter from the outside under running water.
• Dry components thoroughly then assemble the machine and turn the power
on to spin out any excess water.
• Make sure unit and parts are completely dry then store in a cool, dry place.
