IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY BEFORE USING.
2. To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or this appliance in water or any other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to use or play
with the appliance.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning. Allow to cool
completely before touching. Make sure the motor stops completely before disassembling.
5. Do not run the juice extractor continuously for more than 4 minutes. After 4 minutes, switch it off and allow it to
cool for 2 minutes before starting again.
6. Avoid all contact with moving parts; keep hands, hair, loose clothing and utensils away from the juicer during
operation to prevent injury and/or damage to the appliance.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord, plug, rotating sieve or after the appliance malfunctions, or is
dropped or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to Taylor® (see warranty) for examination,
repair or adjustment.
8. Do not use attachments that are not supplied for this appliance from Taylor®. The use of accessory attachments not
recommended by Taylor® may cause fire, electric shock, injuries or permanently damage this product. Only use the
containers that are supplied in this unit.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces including the stove.
11. Ensure the unit is completely assembled before using. Always make sure the juicer cover is clamped securely in place
before the motor is turned on. Do not unfasten the clamps while the juicer is in operation. The unit will not operate
if the safety clamps are not fastened securely.

USING YOUR JUICE EXTRACTOR
?BEFORE FIRST USE·
Make sure the voltage in your outlet is the same as the voltage indicated on the appliance. This appliance is for 120–Volt
AC electrical outlet only.
?
?
?
Remove any bags, labels or stickers from the appliance.
Clean the unit with a damp soft cloth
Wash all of the removable parts – container cover, plunger, feeding funnel, grater/filter basket - using a sponge,
warm water and mild dish detergent. Rinse and dry carefully.
Practice assembling and disassembling the unit before operating.
?
NOTE: do not immerse the base unit in water when cleaning.
How to use your Juice Extractor
?
Place the unit on a flat, sturdy surface with adequate clearance (i.e., do not place under wall cabinets or on
carpeting or other soft surfaces). This appliance is not for use in convection or conventional ovens, microwaves,
or on a stovetop.
?
?
Always be sure that the appliance is properly assembled, turned on and running before inserting food.
Do not force feed the juicer. For most fruits and vegetables, a slow start/stop or jabbing motion will work best.
If the juicer starts to vibrate, a slightly stronger push with the firmer item should bring it into balance.
?
?
Firmer items are best used when the pieces are just large enough to fit in the chute. Softer items are best used
when cut into smaller pieces. Items with thin skins (tomatoes/grapes) are best when chopped into even smaller
pieces. Stringy items like celery should be cut into roughly 2” long pieces for best performance.
When making a drink that combines more than one fruit or vegetable, it is recommended to alternate the various
fruit or vegetable pieces when placing them in the unit. For Example: Carrot/Celery/Tomato Juice – place a
couple pieces of one vegetable into the juicer, then a couple of pieces of the second vegetable, then the third
vegetable. Repeat rotation until all pieces have been placed in the juicer. This will provide better juicing results
than juicing all carrots, then all celery and then all tomatoes.
?
?
When juicing leafy greens, it is recommended that you twist and roll the greens into a ball the size of a golf ball.
Always place the greens into the juicer first, followed by firmer produce like carrots or celery. The juice from
these firmer vegetables will force additional juice from the greens.
When juicing soft produce like tomatoes or grapes, it is best to juice slowly, pausing until the flow of juice has
slowed down. The fiber of softer produce can clog the holes in the juice basket, so you may have to empty the
basket more frequently. It is helpful to alternate with firmer produce.
?
?
?
When finished juicing, allow the appliance to run for a minute to allow all juice to be extracted from the pulp.
It is important that you select fresh, firm and crisp produce for best juicing results.
Whenever possible, drink the juice at once. The sooner the juice is consumed, the greater the benefit from
vitamins and nutrients.
If storing the juice, use a glass container and add a few drops of lemon juice to better preserve the juice. KEEP
STORED JUICE REFRIGERATED.
Getting Started·
?
Make sure the appliance is switched off and unplugged.
Place the separating unit (5) on the motor unit (8), push with both hands on the separating unit until it clicks in
place.
?
?
?
?
?
?
Insert the grater/filter unit (4), turning clockwise until it sits securely.
Mount the protective cover (3) and fasten the safety locks (10).
Place the pulp container (9) under the pulp residue spout (7), and set the juice cup (12) under the juice spout (6).
Clean and wash the fruit or vegetables to be used.
Cut into appropriate sized pieces for feeding into the feeding funnel. Stones and pips should be removed from
fruit.
?
Plug the appliance into the power outlet – remove the plug from its storage area to the required length.
Remember, the unit will not operate if the safety locks are not properly engaged.
Start the juice extractor by pushing the power button.
?
?
Insert the prepared fruit and vegetables into the feeding funnel and gently push down with the food plunger.
NEVER USE YOUR FINGERS TO FEED FOOD DOWN INTO THE FUNNEL.
FOOD MUST BE FED INTO THE APPLIANCE WHILE THE MOTOR IS IN OPERATION.
?
?
Empty the pulp container and the juice container when full (this will probably occur at the same time) before
continuing to process more food. Be sure to switch to the OFF position and wait until the motor stops before
attempting to open the unit and empty the containers.
?
You can make juice from different fruit and vegetables without having to clean your juice extractor, as flavors are
not transferred.

If you have problems removing small particles from the grater/filter basket, a small soft brush will remove
