Operating Instructions
Operating your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer is a simple and efficient process designed to extract the maximum juice from your fruits and vegetables. Before operating, ensure that the juicer is assembled correctly, as outlined in the assembly instructions. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet. Turn the juicer on by pressing the power switch. The juicer will begin to rotate at high speed, preparing to juice your ingredients.
Feed your fruits and vegetables into the juicing chute, using the pusher to gently guide them into the rotating blades. Avoid overloading the juicing chute to prevent jamming. As you juice, the pulp will be collected in the pulp container, while the extracted juice will flow through the spout and into your waiting pitcher or glass.
After juicing, turn the power switch off and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Disassemble the juicer and clean all parts thoroughly, as outlined in the cleaning instructions. By following these operating instructions, you can enjoy the benefits of fresh, homemade juices with ease.
Preparing Fruits and Vegetables
The key to extracting the most juice from your fruits and vegetables lies in proper preparation. Start by washing all produce thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. For leafy greens, such as spinach or kale, remove any tough stems or thick ribs, as these can clog the juicer.
Cut fruits and vegetables into smaller pieces that fit comfortably into the juicing chute. Hard fruits like apples or pears should be cored and cut into smaller sections to ensure smooth juicing. For vegetables like carrots or beets, peel the skin before cutting them into manageable pieces.
For citrus fruits like oranges or grapefruits, cut them in half and remove the seeds before juicing. Ensure that all pieces are free of any pits or hard seeds that could damage the juicer. By following these simple preparation tips, you can ensure a smooth and efficient juicing experience.
Using the Power Juicer
Once your fruits and vegetables are prepped, you’re ready to start juicing! Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet, ensuring that the cord is not hanging over the edge of a counter or table and is away from heat sources.
With the juicer turned off, place the juicing container securely onto the base, ensuring it clicks into place. Attach the lid securely, making sure it is properly aligned.
Turn the juicer on and feed the prepared fruits and vegetables into the juicing chute, one piece at a time. Use the included pusher to gently guide the produce through the chute, avoiding excessive force. Let the juicer run for a few minutes after you’ve finished feeding produce to allow any remaining juice to be extracted.
Once you’ve extracted all the juice, turn off the juicer and carefully remove the juicing container. Pour the freshly squeezed juice into a glass or pitcher and enjoy the delicious, nutritious goodness!
Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular cleaning is crucial for maintaining the optimal performance and longevity of your Jack LaLanne Power Juicer. After each use, unplug the power cord and allow the juicer to cool down completely before cleaning. Disassemble the juicer, separating the juicing container, lid, and other removable parts.
Wash all removable parts in warm, soapy water using a soft sponge or brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can damage the juicer’s surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow all parts to air dry completely.
The base of the juicer can be wiped clean with a damp cloth, but avoid submerging it in water. For stubborn stains, use a mild cleaning solution and a non-abrasive sponge. Do not use bleach or other harsh chemicals, as they can damage the juicer’s finish.
