Cleaning and Maintenance Cleaning Your Greenstar Elite Keeping your Greenstar Elite clean is extremely important for both your health and the peak performance of the machine. We recommend cleaning the juicer immediately after each use, before food particles have a chance to dry. Since Greenstar Elite extracts minerals, such as calcium, from the produce so well, we recommend cleaning all of the juicing parts immediately after use to prevent troublesome mineral build-up. Cleaning Greenstar Elite 1.
Stains: Colored stains on parts of a well-used juicer and may be difficult to remove. Many people leave the colored stains as a ‘badge of honor.’ But if you would like to try to remove the color stains, try using a 25%-50% white vinegar/water solution and soak the parts overnight and then scrub with the cleaning brush. This may be repeated if necessary. Juicing green honeydew or cantaloupe melons may also lighten stains.
Troubleshooting NOISES: Even though the Greenstar Elite Juice Extractor is very quiet, some noises are normal during operation. If you are unsure whether the noises you are hearing are normal: 1. Squeaking: Your Greenstar Elite may make a squeaking noise during operation. To check if this is normal, assemble the machine without the Twin Gears and screen and switch it on. If you hear squeaking, your drive shaft may need more lubrication.
