Jack LaLanne's MT-1020 Operating Manual - Before You Begin
10
Congratulations on your purchase of the Jack LaLanne Power Juicer. In order
to assure that your first and every juicing experience will be a pleasant one,
we have included this “Step-by-Step Guide to Juicing”. Juicing is a quick and
satisfying way to get the vitamins, nutrients, and minerals from fresh fruits and
vegetables… a few minutes well spent for a lifetime of good health benefits!
STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO JUICING
5 Simple Steps to Get Started
Before You Begin
While we manufacture and ship under the highest standards,
we recommend you clean your Power Juicer before first use.
Step 1
Remove all packing materials including those found inside the machine between
the lid and the blade.
NOTE: If you do not remove the paper disk insert from the inside of the machine
before starting the motor, you will hear a loud noise and possibly cause the
machine to temporarily shut down.
Step 2
Disassemble and wash before first use. Re-assemble making sure the blade is
secure and locking bar is locked into place. The motor will not turn on if machine
is not assembled properly.
Note: See Assembly and Disassembly instructions on pages 6-9 in this
Operating Manual.
Step 3
Lower the Juice Spout into the downward position.
Step 4
Plug the AC cord into a 110 V wall outlet and let the juicer run for approximately
5–10 seconds before you begin juicing. This will balance the blade. During
the manufacturing process, a few drops of motor lubricant may have dripped
into the motor housing causing a vapor burn off odor. This is normal and will
dissipate with initial use.
Step 5
Remove pusher, insert produce then replace pusher quickly. Do not force produce
down the chute. Apply a gentle pressure with a slight twisting motion. This will
help the pusher process the produce.
IMPORTANT: If you apply too much pressure it can cause the motor to
strain and possibly shut down. See Built-In Thermal Cut Off Switch/
Automatic Shut Off on page 4.
