Important when using a Cold press Juicer

Make sure when feeding through the chute that you don’t overload it with produce. If you try to put too much in at a time, you could potentially crack the drum lid and/or damage other internal parts including the motor. Also overloading the machine can cause the strainer to clog up and not filter through properly which will end up in blockage. Removing stones and/or large, hard pips from fruits such as olives or mangoes are also important as these will damage topset. The best thing to do is to let the machine “eat” the produce before continuing to feed the chute.
