- Like most juicers, the Norwalk grinds up your fruits and vegetables into small pulpy pieces which are then collected into a small bag made of cloth. You put the bag into the hydraulic press on the juicer and it exerts pressure to squeeze out the maximum amount of juice. After use, you need to rinse all the parts. They are made of stainless steel and easy to pull out. The cloth bag also needs to be rinsed out thoroughly. Careful cleaning will keep vegetable fibers from gumming up the juicer and causing excessive heat during the juicing.
- With careful cleaning, the Norwalk juicer will last for many years. You should wash all the removable parts every time the juicer is used. Like all machinery, there are some parts that can wear out over time. The most common problems are that the motor bearings or belt need replacement. In some cases, this can cause an oil leak in the hydraulic press. You can contact the factory for replacement parts and take your juicer to a small repair shop to do the repair.
- This juicer is heavy, so you will want to find a good permanent place for it in your kitchen. Also, it can generate more heat than less expensive juicers, which do not have the hydraulic press mechanism. Heat can be a problem since it does diminish some of the health benefits by reducing the enzymes and nutrients in the juice. Taking care which fruits and vegetables you use and in what combinations will minimize heat problems.
