Well ya can juice 'em but it's a bit labour intensive .. lol 'cause ya gotta skin 'em, and get ALL the "Seeds" out, they taste bad... then put the pulp in.. and juice away... yield is low also .. but tastes real nice in the end.. I usually do it in a plastic bag,and tip the pulp into the juicer. Ya can make great "leathers" too..

motor has burned out field winding s and is not capable of running under load the seller knew that and you bought it hope you didn't pay more than a few dollars for it

IF there is NO plastic on it, you can use heat from something like a heat gun or oven to bake it off. You might also try something like CLR or muratic acid BUT they are not that expensive to replace.

Mine stopped working after only a few uses. It turns out that the safety microswitch button wasn't being depressed. The little button on the bottom of the pulp collector had broken off. (Image #1) I put a 1/4 inch piece of a shishkabob skewer in the hole before putting the pulp collector on. (image #2) It works fine now. It's still safe. The motor will not start unless the pulp collector (receptacle) is in place and locked in. Be sure to unplug the machine before doing this.

it is jammed, or it is too full....stop, take apart, scoop out pulp, put back together and restart. go slow when juicing...too fast will jam it!

The pulp collection receptacle has a tiny clear plastic button on the bottom. If this has broken off (it happens often) the machine won't turn on. The button must be present to depress the safety switch at the bottom of the machine. If everything else is properly assembled and the machine won't turn on, this is probably the cause. Check the bottom of the pulp collection receptacle to see if the button has broken off. (picture #2) If so, replace it with a piece of pasta or a tiny piece of wood. Sounds silly, but it works. The safety switch at the bottom of the machine must be depressed before the machine will run.

The owner's manual should be available online. Any good juice recipe book will work with this juicer. I've found amazing recipes online and especially at countless Nutritional/ Vegan websites.This type of juicer is a "juice extractor", meaning it doesn't completely liquify all of the pulp like the new Ninja does. Look for recipes that work for a juice extractor.

The spout, itself is hinged. It has two positions, an upper and a lower position. (Similar to a light switch). Make sure it is in it's lowest position when making juice, otherwise the liquid will collect in the inner bowl and leak out the sides of the juicer. Move the spout to the upper position to temporarily stop the flow of juice, such as when you change glasses or receptacles. Then, put the spout in the lower position to resume the flow of juice.

You can get this with google.

Otherwise ask manualfox.com - this is the hazzle-less way to get it.

Hello go here for your power juicer manual.

The safety switch is on the bottom base where the pulp collection bin goes. If you look on the pulp collection bin there is a small tab that when assembled right deactivates the safety switch. The main arm that holds the top container where you put the produce in is also a safety mechanism that when not in place the machine will not turn on.
