For All Non-Juicing Functions STEP 1 Place the auger into the drum. Insert the blank into the drum with the protruding tab at the bottom. Insert the appropriate nozzle into the inside of the Drum Cap. Place the drum cap onto the drum end and turn it counterclockwise until it is firmly in place. STEP 2 Connect assembled drum set with main body by inserting the visible part of the metal shaft into the hex area on the main body. Secure by turning the locking clip clockwise. Place the hopper onto the drum. STEP 3 Place the two bowls under the drum set. Plug the power cord into wall outlet. Press the power switch down on the ON side of the switch. Congratulations!

Leave the machine running while you process the items. When juicing, the juice will exit the bottom of the drum and the pulp will exit out the end of the drum cap. For all other functions, everything will exit through the end of the drum cap. STEP 4 DO NOT place any metal objects into the hopper. DO NOT place any ice cubes into the hopper. If drum set is clogged or the machine stops operating, press the reverse button 2 to 3 times and press the ON button again to resume normal operation. STEP 5 Switch the juicer OFF before changing or touching any moving parts. Remove the drum set from the main body by turning the locking clip counterclockwise. Remove the Drum Cap by turning clockwise and pull out the screen/blank. Pull the auger forward to disassemble it from the drum set. After each juicing session, wash all parts in warm soapy water. All of the removable parts are dishwasher safe. Do NOT place the motor housing into the dishwasher. Do NOT run juicer more than 30 minutes continuously at any on time.

SIEVE The included sieve, which fits on both of the bowls, should only be needed after processing items that seem to have too much pulp in the juice or foam on the top of the juice. It is best to use the sieve at the end of the juicing process by pouring all of the prepared juice through the sieve. JUICING FRUIT AND VEGETABLE JUICER Cone: Juicing Screen Nozzle: No Nozzle Needed HELPFUL HINTS •The included sieve, which fits on both of the bowls, should be needed after processing items that have more pulp or foam for your taste. It should not be used during the juicing process. It should be used at the end of the juicing process by pouring all of the prepared juice through the sieve. •While the Omega Nutrition Center can extract juice from unpeeled fruits and vegetables, we recommend you thoroughly wash and peel your fresh ingredients to remove accumulated chemicals. •Cutting fruit or vegetables into smaller pieces may help the juice be extracted more thoroughly. But, it is not necessary. •Turn on the machine and let it run without interruption until all the juice has been extracted. •When using a combination of soft and firm produce, alternate the items. It is best to start with the softer items and to finish with the firmer items. •If the pulp in the drum starts to clog or the juicer starts to vibrate slightly during operation, turn off the machine and empty the drum set. Reassemble and resume normal operation. •Do not juice anything that will change the taste in a negative way. (Example: orange rind) •Items that are traditionally thrown away for meals may be juiced. (Example: carrot or beet stems) •Soft produce will process more easily if refrigerated. •Items like ginger, lemon and beet may be added for taste. They should all be used according to your taste. Although they are listed in many of our recipes, they are optional. Make drinks that suit your personal taste or health needs. •After placing the last piece of fruit or vegetable into the hopper, keep the machine running for a few seconds longer to ensure the machine has extracted the last drops of juice. •Clean all parts that come into contact with juice after each use of the Omega 8003/8005 Nutrition Center.
