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.)
• 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.
• We recommend washing the pusher by hand in warm soapy water. Due to
temperature differences in dishwashers if you choose to wash the pusher in the
dishwasher, place it on top rack only.
• 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.
• 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.

mechanism on the bottom side of the

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. Before juicing cherries we recommend you remove the pits using a cherry pitter.
• 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.

ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS
The Power Juicer has a thermal cut-off safety feature. If the unit accidentally overheats, it will
stop working temporarily until the Power Juicer cools down. Afterwards, the unit will continue to
work again normally.
In the event the Power Juicer is jammed the motor may shut down. If this occurs the juicer should
be shut off and unplugged. The unit should be thoroughly cleaned to remove the obstruction.
The thermal cut-off safety feature is designed to shut off the motor when it over heats.
Please use extreme caution when handling the Power Juicer blade as the blades are very sharp.
Always turn power off to the Power Juicer immediately and remove power cord from electrical
outlet before disassembling to clean due to any food obstruction.
