Frequently Asked Questions - Express Jr. JM1000M JUICEMAN

How do I assemble the Juiceman Express Jr. JM1000M?

Place the motor base on a flat surface. Attach the pulp container, then the stainless steel filter basket. Lock the cover with the safety arm. Finally, place the juice jug under the spout.

Can I juice whole fruits without cutting them?

No, you should cut fruits and vegetables into small pieces to fit the feed chute. The feed chute width is about 2 inches, so cut items accordingly.

How do I clean the juicer after use?

Unplug the juicer. Disassemble all removable parts. Rinse them immediately under running water. Use the cleaning brush to remove pulp from the filter basket. All parts except the motor base are dishwasher safe.

Why is my juicer vibrating excessively?

Excessive vibration may be due to unbalanced load or improper assembly. Ensure the filter basket is correctly seated and the pulp container is locked. Also, check that the juicer is on a stable, level surface.

What is the maximum running time for continuous use?

Do not run the juicer for more than 2 minutes continuously. Allow it to cool down for at least 2 minutes before resuming to prevent motor overheating.

Can I juice leafy greens like spinach or wheatgrass?

Yes, the Juiceman Express Jr. can handle leafy greens. For best results, roll them into a tight ball and feed slowly. Use the included plunger to push them down the chute.

How do I replace the filter basket or other parts?

Replacement parts are available from Juiceman customer service. The filter basket, cover, and other plastic parts are sold separately. Contact Juiceman for part numbers.

Is the juicer safe to use if the pulp container is overfilled?

No, overfilling the pulp container can cause jamming or leakage. Stop juicing and empty the pulp container when it reaches the max fill line.

What should I do if the motor stops working?

First, check if the safety locking arm is properly engaged. If the motor overheated, wait 10 minutes for it to cool and reset. If it still doesn't work, contact Juiceman support.

Can I juice frozen fruits?

No, the juicer is not designed for frozen fruits. Thaw them first to avoid damaging the motor or blades. Only use fresh or room-temperature produce.

Always make sure juicer cover is clamped securely in place before motor is turned on. Do not unfasten clamps while juicer is in operation.

☐ Be sure to turn switch to OFF position after each use of your juicer. Make sure the motor stops completely before disassembling.

Do not put your fingers or other objects into the juicer opening while it is in operation. If food becomes lodged in opening, use food pusher or another piece of fruit or vegetable to push it down. When this method is not possible, turn the motor off and disassemble juicer to remove remaining food.

○ Do not use the appliance if the rotating sieve is damaged.

○ Do not operate without the pulp container in place.

Keep hands and utensils away from moving blades or discs while processing food to reduce the risk of severe injury to persons or damage to the food processor. A scraper may be used, but must be used only when the food processor is not running.

- Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.

- Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

To reduce the risk of injury, never place cutting blade or discs on base without first putting bowl properly in place.

○ Be certain cover is securely locked in place before operating appliance.

Use Low speed for softer produce like berries, citrus fruits, leafy vegetables and soft-skinned produce such as peaches, plums and cucumbers.

High

Use High speed for harder produce like rind-on melons and pineapple, beets and ginger.

Off

The juice extractor will run continuously until the Off button is pressed. The appliance should be stored in Off position and unplugged when not in use.

IMPORTANT: Always press the OFF button before plugging in the appliance.

PURCHASING AND STORING INGREDIENTS

• Always use fresh fully ripened fruits and vegetables.
- When purchasing, consider selecting fruits and vegetables in season for best freshness and flavor.
- Choose fruits that are plump, tender and have bright color. Fruits should be heavy for their size without bruises, cuts or blemishes.
- To ripen fruit, place in a small clean paper bag. Close the bag loosely and let stand at room temperature. (To speed ripening, add a ripe apple or banana to the bag.) Once ripened, store in the refrigerator for a day or two until ready to use.
- Store perishable vegetables in the refrigerator until ready to use.

PREPARING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

- Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly just before using in the juice extractor, using a natural bristle brush. We suggest using a biodegradable cleaner, such as Fit® Fruit and Vegetable Wash to help remove pesticide residue.

• If desired, remove the skin. The skin can be left on all produce with the exception of:
  o All citrus fruits, including
• Oranges
• Grapefruit
• Lemons
  • Limes
• Tangerines

Note: The oil in the skin of these fruits tastes bitter and is difficult to digest.

Hint: Although the skin may be left on melons and pineapple, you may choose to remove them to maximize the fruit flavor in the finished drink.

- All pits and large seeds should be removed, including:

o Apricots
o Cherries
o Nectarines
o Mangoes
o Peaches
o Plums
o Melons
- Remove and discard outer leaves of non-organic produce. Peel away any wax coatings.
- Trim any bruised or discolored sections of fruits and vegetables
- The design of the feed chute accommodates larger produce. It will easily accommodate most whole fruits and vegetables, such as apples, beets and carrots. If necessary, cut into large pieces before inserting into feed tube.
- Be sure all parts of the juice extractor are clean and dry. See CLEANING instructions on page 13.

HINTS AND TIPS FOR YOUR JUICE EXTRACTOR

• Do not put food into the juice extractor before turning the appliance on.
• Let the appliance run for at least 10 seconds before placing any food into the feed chute.
• Do not let the pulp container or juice glass overfill while using the machine. Turn the appliance off, wait for the motor to stop running and any juice to stop flowing. Empty the juice glass and/or pulp container. Be sure they are properly replaced before resuming operation of the extractor.
• When processing different fruits and vegetables, process the soft foods on Low speed first; follow with the fruits and vegetables that use the High speed.
• When processing leafy vegetables, such as parsley and herbs, add the herbs between the harder foods.
• For easy clean up, place a plastic bag inside the pulp container before using the appliance.
• When processing small fruits, like grapes, add them in handfuls.
• Beets and pomegranates stain easily; process them last and wash all parts before making another juice drink.
• Do not process bananas, avocados or coconut. They have no juice and will clog the appliance.
• Be sure to remove all pits and large seeds from fruits.
• To make delicious citrus juice, peel the fruit, removing all the white pith. Refrigerate till cold and process the fruit through the extractor for a great drink.
• For maximum nutritional benefits drink your processed juice right away.

Tip for optimum juicing: Avoid excessive build up of pulp on the underside of the lid.

USES FOR THE PULP

Tip: The pulp from the fruits and vegetables is high in nutritional value.

• Use it to add fiber and flavor to muffins and quick breads.
• Use it to thicken soups, casseroles and sauces.
• Use fruit pulp to add nutrition and flavor to desserts, such as, puddings and cakes.
• Be sure to use it the same day you extract the juice.
• Pulp is also food for your garden. Use it for compost.

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

Important: Always unplug your appliance from the outlet before cleaning. CLEANING

1. Unplug your Juiceman® Express Jr. and disassemble.
2. Using a sponge or damp cloth, clean the base, rubber feet and underside of the motor base. If necessary, you may use a damp toothbrush or cloth to clean juice from the inside of the drive shaft (on top of motor base).
3. All parts – except the base – are dishwasher-safe (top-rack only) or you may wash in warm, soapy water, using any mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Do not use any products containing ammonia or scouring powders, as these can dull, scratch or mar the surface. Use the cleaning brush provided to remove pulp left on any of the removable parts. Do not use metal brushes or pads.
4. To clean the filter, use cleaning brush provided to make sure the tiny holes in the mesh filter are not clogged. This can be accomplished by holding filter under a running faucet while brushing the mesh screen from both the inside and outside of the filter.

Important: Do not immerse the base in water or spray with water. Clean only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel.

Tip: Pulp from pulp container can be used in many different ways: making breads, muffins, cakes, soup stocks, compressed facial packs and garden compost material.

REMOVING TOUGH STAINS

1. Due to powerful staining properties of carotenoids found in many vegetables, particularly carrots, we suggest soaking any stained parts overnight in one of the following solutions:
2. Biodegradable soap in enough warm water to cover juice extractor parts
3. 14 cup bleach added to a sink full of warm water
   • 1 part warm water to 1 part cider vinegar
4. 12 small box of baking soda in enough warm water to cover juicer parts.

Important: Never use ammonia or abrasive cleansers!

1. After soaking overnight, lightly scrub with soft bristle brush and liquid detergent.
