Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SUNBEAM SLOW JUICER. • Do not put fingers or other objects into the feed chute whilst the juicer is in operation. • Do not push fruit or vegetables into the feed chute with your fingers, always use the food pusher provided. • If any fruit or vegetables become lodged in the feed chute, use the food pusher or turn off the juicer, remove the plug from the power outlet and disassemble to remove the lodged fruit or vegetables.
Features of your Sunbeam Juice Life Food pusher Guides food evenly down the food tube. Reverse/off/on switch Easy to use operating switch starts and stops the operation of the slow juicer and also includes a reverse function to free up any wedged food stuffs. Visor Designed to stay on the benchtop, the visor totally encloses and protects the juicer, when unassembled.
Hopper Juicing screw The slow moving "stone mill" style juicing gear (screw) grinds fruit and vegetables at a gentle 100 revolutions per minute.

Heading Assembling your Sunbeam Juice Life Before Use After unpacking your Sunbeam Juice Life Juicer, we recommend that you disassemble the unit before using for the first time. Wash all parts except the motor body in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry immediately. Important: Always ensure your juicer is unplugged from the power outlet when not in use, during assembling or whilst removing parts. 1. Insert the juicing screw into the juicer body, figure 8. 2. Then, add the following, figure 9; 3.
Helpful Hints for Juicing • The Sunbeam Juice Life juices wheatgrass, leafy greens and herbs, fruit and vegetables. • Think of fresh squeezed juice as your vitamin and mineral supplementation. Drink juice daily. • Never force the food pusher down the chute with heavy pressure. Heavy downward pressure may bend the steel juicer screw shaft. Such heavy pressure indicates that 1) the feed chute is overfilled, or 2) the juicer body is clogged. Try the reverse button or clean out the juicer body.
