Assembly Instructions
Assembling your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer is a straightforward process. Begin by placing the base unit on a stable and flat surface. Next, insert the filter assembly into the receptacle, ensuring it is securely seated. Place the pulp guard on top of the receptacle, aligning the tabs with the corresponding slots. Now, attach the lid to the base unit, making sure the lid is properly aligned and the locking bar is securely in place. The locking bar acts as a safety feature, preventing the juicer from operating unless it is properly assembled. Finally, insert the pusher into the chute. Once all components are securely assembled, you are ready to start juicing. Always refer to the illustrated assembly guide provided with your juicer for detailed visual instructions.
Operating Instructions
Operating your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer is simple and efficient. First, ensure that the power cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet. Then, carefully assemble the juicer components, following the assembly instructions provided in this manual. Once assembled, plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet. Turn the power switch to the ON position. Allow the juicer to run for approximately 10 seconds before inserting fruits or vegetables into the chute. This ensures that the motor reaches optimal speed for efficient juicing. Place the prepared fruits or vegetables into the chute, pushing them gently with the pusher. Do not force food into the juicer, as this can cause damage or jamming. As the juicer operates, you will notice juice being collected in the receptacle. Once juicing is complete, turn the power switch to the OFF position and allow the motor to come to a complete stop before disassembling the juicer.
Preparing Fruits and Vegetables
Before juicing, proper preparation of fruits and vegetables is essential for optimal results. Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly under running water to remove dirt, debris, and pesticides. For hard fruits and vegetables like apples, carrots, and beets, it is recommended to cut them into smaller pieces or slices to facilitate easier processing through the juicer. Leafy greens like spinach and kale should be rolled into bundles before juicing for smoother extraction. For fruits with pits, such as peaches and plums, remove the pits before juicing. Also, remove any stems or leaves that may hinder the juicing process. Avoid using frozen fruits or vegetables, as they can cause jamming or damage to the juicer. By adhering to these simple preparation steps, you can ensure smooth operation and maximum juice extraction from your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer.
Using the Juicer
Once you have prepared your fruits and vegetables, you can begin juicing. Ensure the juicer is properly assembled and plugged in. Turn the power switch to the “ON” position and allow the juicer to run for at least 10 seconds before inserting any produce. This allows the juicer to reach optimal speed and ensure smooth operation. Carefully feed the prepared produce into the juicer chute, using the pusher to guide it towards the blade. Do not force food into the juicer, as this can cause jamming or damage. Maintain a steady pace and avoid overloading the chute. As the juicer extracts juice, it will flow into the container you have placed underneath. Once you have finished juicing, turn the power switch to the “OFF” position and allow the juicer to come to a complete stop before disassembling it.
