IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
When using electrical appliances, basic safe-
ty precautions should be followed, including
the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. To protect against risk of electrical shock,
do not immerse cord, plug, or motor
base in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug cord from outlet when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts, and
before cleaning.
5. Avoid contacting moving parts. Keep fin-
gers out of food chute.
6. Always make sure juice extractor cover is
clamped securely in place before motor
is turned on. Do not unfasten cover latch-
es while juice extractor is in operation.
7. Never operate without pulp bowl in place.
8. Be sure to turn switch to OFF position
after each use of your juice extractor.
Make sure the motor stops completely
before disassembling.
9. Do not put fingers or other objects into
the juice extractor food chute while it is in
operation. Never feed food by hand –
always use the food pusher. If food
becomes lodged in the opening, use
food pusher or another piece of fruit or
vegetable to push it down. When this
method is not possible, turn the motor
off, unplug the cord from the outlet, and
disassemble juicer to remove the remain-
ing food.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the appli-
ance malfunctions or is dropped or
damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free
customer service number for information
on examination, repair, or electrical or
mechanical adjustment.
11. The use of attachments not recommended
or sold by Hamilton Beach/ Proctor-Silex,
Inc. may cause fire, electric shock, or
injury.
12. Do not use outdoors.
13. Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter, or touch hot surfaces, includ-
ing stove.
14. Do not leave juice extractor unattended
while it is operating.
15. Blades are sharp; handle carefully.
16. Keep hair, clothing, and jewelry, as well
as spatulas and other utensils, away from
food chute during operation to prevent
the possibility of severe injury to persons
and/or damage to the appliance.
17. The cutter/strainer is a very delicate
screen not covered under the warranty.
Do not wash in an automatic dishwasher.
If bent or damaged, do not use, as it
could break into small pieces and cause
personal injury and/or damage the appli-
ance. Call our toll-free customer service
number to order a new cutter/strainer.
Replace cutter when it shows signs of
wear.
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do
not use another high wattage appliance on
the same circuit with your juice extractor.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an
electrical outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature intended to help reduce the
risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
The length of the cord used on this appli-
ance was selected to reduce the hazards
of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an
approved extension cord may be used.
The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating
of the juice extractor. Care must be taken
to arrange the extension cord so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
