Before first use
- Remove all parts from the packaging. Note that the Hopper and Cleaning Brush are packed outside the protective foam.
- Wash all removable and washable parts, such as Pusher, Lid, Strainer, Auger, Bowl, and Cup in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Setting Up Your Deluxe Cold Press Power Juicer
- Make sure the Cold Press Power Juicer is unplugged and the On/Off Switch is turned to Off prior to assembling (photo A).
Position the Juice Bowl on the Motor Block. Make sure the Bowl is mounted properly on the Axle of the Motor Block (photo B).
- Push the Auger firmly into the center of the Bowl, making sure that it rests on the bottom (photo C).
Position the Cover on the Bowl and twist until the cover clicks shut. Make sure the arrow on the Cover aligns with the Lock icon on the lid (photo D). Note that the unit will not power on if the Cover is not locked into place.
Position one cup under the Juice Spout and one cup under the Pulp Spout. The Juicer is now ready to use (photo E). The Hopper can be added to the tube of the Cover to hold more ingredients, if you wish (photo F).
Using Your Deluxe Cold Press Power Juicer
- The On/Off switch has 3 positions: On (I), Off (O), and Reverse (R) (photo A).
Before using, make sure the Juicer is turned off and plug it in. Position the Cups underneath the Spouts (photo B). Clean fruits and vegetables you wish to juice and cut them into 1-1.5 inch segments for best results.
CAUTION: Remove any hard pits or seeds before pressing to prevent possible damage to the Auger.
Peels and pits/seeds should be removed from oranges, lemons, grapefruits, and melons before use.- Turn on the On/Off Switch (photo C).
Insert the prepped ingredients into the opening at the top of the Cover. Push the food down into the bowl using the Pusher (photo D).
TIP: Start with the firmer ingredients, then squeeze out the softer ingredients.
CAUTION: Never use the machine with an empty bowl, always add ingredients.
If the Cover becomes loosened from the Bowl during use, the motor of the machine will automatically stop to prevent hazards. DO NOT insert fingers or other foreign objects into the opening of the Cover while the machine is in use. Use only the Pusher and NOT spoons, forks, tongs, etc.
- If the machine becomes stuck during use, turn the On/Off Switch to Reverse and hold it down to run the machine in the opposite direction (photo E). This could remove any obstructions. Release the switch to stop the reverse movement. If this does not work, turn off the machine, unplug it, and reassemble according to the instructions before trying again.
When the Cup is full or all the fruits and vegetables have been squeezed, turn off the On/Off Switch (photo F) and close the Juice Valve.
NOTE: If the machine overheats, it will automatically shut off. Turn off the On/Off Switch and wait 10 minutes, then turn the machine back on. Juice should always be stored in the refrigerator.
CAUTION: Do not let the machine run for more than 30 minutes at a time. Do not touch the On/Off Switch with wet hands.
Using your frozen attachment
- Look for the to determine which attachment is the Frozen Attachment for frozen treats.
- The Frozen Attachment is perfect for making frozen smoothies and sorbet.
- NOTE: When using the Frozen Attachment, the fruit will come out of the Pulp Spout rather than the Juice Spout.
- Do not put ice cubes in the Power Juicer.
- If freezing your own fruit for sorbet, cut fruit into 1” cubes before freezing for best results.
- Allow frozen fruit to soften at room temperature for about 5-15 minutes.
- Only juice one piece of fruit at a time when using the Frozen Attachment. For example, using the Pusher, juice 1 piece of fruit through the Feed Tube until it is entirely processed and then add another piece of fruit.
Apply steady pressure when pushing food through the Feed Tube.

- Unbox and wash all parts thoroughly before first use.
- Assemble the juicer by attaching the pulp container, juice jug, and other components as per the user manual.

Tips and Tricks
- Starchy fruits and vegetables, such as sugar cane, avocado, banana, fig, mango, papaya, dragon fruit, kiwi, and grapes, are not suitable for juicing because they will easily clog the Strainer.
- Fruits and vegetables should be cut into 1-1.5 inch pieces before juicing, especially fibrous foods like celery and pineapple.
