Jack Lalanne Recent Questions, Troubleshooting Help & Support

auto parts stores usually have assorted ones. Take the old one out and have them compare

this happens to me a lot. Take the lid off the juicer and turn the lid upside down take a hammer preferably a rubber mallet one and gently tap the bottom of the plunger while holding it upside down with bottom part of plunger up to your vision field tape it on bottom while trying to turn it into the right position (flat side to flat side) from the top putting a little torque on it..when it is tapped with a hammer or some similar tool far enough up the tube in reverse, it will then turn into the right spot if you tap the bottom with one hand while turning t to the right position on the top of the plunger and will be able to be removed but do not tap hard enough to break it.

Contact the manufacturer and ask it replacement is available.

Fit the stubby metal bits on the half-moon into the holes on the top of the blade. Hold the half-moon firmly and exert pressure to turn it to the right. The blade should unlock.

First determine..if it is indeed the motor that is fried. Do this by not using the caraffe. Plug in the motor and run it by itself. If it runs fine without smoking again..It is the caraffe that is defective.
If its the motor you are out of luck completely. Jack Lalanne is out of business.
If it is the caraffe..which I suspect it is not...oil the rim of the bearing that is on the outside of your caraffe ..it surrounds the knurled part that is inserted into the blender...even if you are able to get the motor repaired..get in the habit of oiling the caraffe bearing after each time you use it. If you dont it will fail within months to a year of use
Lalanne had they made in China..and using unsealed bearinga that rust out and the contents of the blender come out!! So I discovere dthat oiling that part each time after use..keeps my blender running smoothly.
You might want to take yoru motor to a small appliance repairman..he might find something simple happened.. like a loose wire connection inside! If he does...you have a simple solution and a motor that works!
Remember to oil the bearing a couple drops each time after use...and if yoru caraffe ever fails you can buy a new one..( Oil that one too!) at Cooking Toys..you can google for the address

If there is not a flaw in the product itself it could be a problem with assembly or that the locking bar is not locked in place properly. The juicer will not operate if the locking bar does not click in to place in to the grooves on both sides of the lid.Jack LaLanne has several HowTo videos posted that would be worth reviewing:http://www.powerjuicer.com/power-juicer-how-to-videos.phpYou are also able to download a manual which includes illustrated assembly and disassembly instructions:http://www.powerjuicer.com/power-juicer-manuals.phpIf you are unable to lock the locking bar in place it suggests that some other component has not been installed in the correct position. Review the assembly instructions to make sure all pieces are properly positioned.Thank you for using FixYa!

Cleaning the juicer immediately after use makes it really easy to clean. Run few cups of water through the machine while running and make sure to use a bristle brush to scrub the screen with after use.

Just find a big wire around 1/8 diameter. Bend it and insert both ends on the blade holes. Cover the sharp blade with cloth or use leather gloves.
