ADDITIONAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
1. Place the legs on a flat surface before you start pressing.
2. Do not reach into the press with your hand while the driving wheel is turning.
3. Do not attempt to modify the connecting rod.
4. Keep the working area clean. Operation of the fruit press produces residue that can
cause slippery working conditions.
ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION
1. Line the cage with included pressing cloth (may be obtained as an accessory).
2. Fill the press with crushed fruits; ensure that the fruits are surrounded with the cloth.
3. Put the wooden plate on the filled cage.
4. Put the pressure plate on the crossbar.
5. Screw the ratchet on by hand.
6. Push the driving rod in the ratchet.
7. Rotate the ratchet assembly until the handle contacts the top of the basket. When this
happens, raise the ratchet assembly to add additional pressing blocks.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Once you have completed your work, wash all parts with warm soapy water. Immediately
dry all parts with a clean cloth. Store the press in a dry room for the pressing cage wood to
dry well. Before long-term storage, grease the bearings and metal surfaces with a food
grade silicone spray.
