7. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Main Body
Use a warm damp cloth to wipe down any residue and juice from the front of the main body. A wet
sponge may be used around the face plate where the gears fit into the machine to remove any mineral
build up.
Stains
Stains may naturally occur as a result of the deep pigments present in beets, turmeric and other
vibrant vegetables. To remove these stains be sure to clean your juicer after every use. If stains remain
removable parts may be soaked in a solution of 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide and 1 cup water. Let the
parts sit for at least 2 hours then using a non-abrasive sponge scrub off the stained areas.
Calcium and Mineral Deposits on the Twin Gears
After using the machine for some time, you may notice a calcium or mineral deposit on the surfaces of
the TWIN GEARS. To remove these deposits from your TWIN GEARS try one of the following methods:
• After juicing carrots, feed one tablespoon of carrot pulp into the feeding chute with two teaspoons
of granulated sugar. Alternate pulp and sugar several times and then run the machine. Disassemble
and thoroughly clean all of the juicing parts.
• Mix a solution of 4 tablespoons of baking soda with 2 cups (16 oz.) of lukewarm water. Soak the
parts in the solution overnight to loosen the mineral deposits and to remove stains. Wash with soap
and water and use a hard bristled brush to remove mineral deposits. Wipe with cloth to dry.
• Soak the gears in a solution of 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide and 1 cup water to remove mineral build
up.
OTHER HELPFUL HINTS
• Use the narrow, pointed end of the CLEANING BRUSH to push food out through the PULP OUTLET.
• Dried fruits and nuts can be very sticky on the inside surfaces of the juicer. To remove the residue
more easily run a couple of stalks of celery through before disassembling the machine or run a cup
of water through the machine while it is on to dislodge food particles.
