Assembling The HealthMaster™
WARNING: Do not plug power
cord into electrical outlet until unit
is fully assembled.
Unwind power cord to desired length.
This appliance was designed with built-in power
cord storage beneath the Base. Store the excess
length of cord neatly underneath to avoid
accidental tipping of machine while in use.
Power to unit will not take place
unless steps 1–5 in this section
are followed carefully.
1. Place the motor Base on
a stable, dry surface.
NOTE:
At this point you may want to place the ingredients for processing into the unit. Insert
ingredients into the Pitcher, soft foods rst, harder items last. The E-Z Lock Cap can be
removed during operation to add additional ingredients or to insert the Tamper. The
E-Z Lock Cap should only be removed at speed #1. Always replace Cap when you are
nished inserting Tamper or additional ingredients.
2. Firmly seat the Pitcher onto the
Base. The Pitcher will t on the Base
4 dierent ways. The 4 knobs on
the Base should t into the corners
under the Pitcher. Once seated
properly, this will activate the
weighted safety switch.

Assembling The HealthMaster™ (continued)
NOTE: Unit will not turn on until Weighted Safety Switch is
fully engaged. Should the unit overheat during operation
the motor will automatically shut o. To restore power
allow the machine to cool down for 35 minutes.
NOTE:
While the power is ON and as air pressure
inside the Pitcher increases, steam will
release from the openings on the side of
the Cap. To release the steam, turn the Cap
counterclockwise to the unlock symbol.
5. Make sure the unit is assembled properly before
connecting the power cord to the electrical outlet. Once
the HealthMaster is plugged in, the ON/OFF button will
light up blue. But the LED Display will not be lit up. This
means the HealthMaster is not on but there is power.
6. BEFORE pushing the ON button — hold the top of the
assembled unit to prevent tipping when starting. Once
you push the ON button, the LED Display will illuminate.
7. After pushing the OFF button wait until the Blades
completely stop spinning and unit is unplugged before
removing the Cap, Lid, or the Pitcher.
4. Place Lid on Pitcher and push
down until Lid lip meets the top
of the Pitcher.
3. Insert the E-Z Lock Cap into the Lid

Using the Tamper
The Tamper is useful when preparing thick or frozen mixtures.
The Tamper can be used while the machine is running.
1. Make sure Lid is secure and locked in place.
2. Remove E-Z Lock Cap from Lid.
3. Insert Tamper through the opening in the Lid.
4. Hold the Pitcher handle with one hand,
grasp Tamper with the other hand.
5. Move up and down or in a circular motion
to move contents around the Blade.
Tips for Using the Tamper:
When preparing thick mixtures that don’t circulate freely, insert the
Tamper and move in a circular motion. This will help remove any air
or ingredients trapped by the Blade. The Lid prevents the Tamper
from making direct contact with the Blade.
NOTE: In the event the motor overheats during operation
it will automatically shut o. To restore power, allow it to
cool down for 35 minutes before using.

Using Your HealthMaster™
• Always remove all stems and large pits such as peach, mango, apricot, etc.
before processing as these items can damage the Blade and cause the motor to
malfunction.

then dry ingredients, then ice if needed.
• Thoroughly wash all fruits and vegetables before juicing to remove any dirt
or chemicals.
• Fruits and vegetables juice best when they are fresh and rm.
• Always serve fresh foods immediately. After just a few seconds they begin to lose
vitamin potency.
Making Hot Soups & Sauces
1. Carefully add liquids and solids, avoiding splashing that could cause personal
injury when liquids are hot. (When recipe calls for hot liquid to be added to the
Pitcher, let sit for 3–5 minutes with the E-Z Lock Cap removed, allowing the steam
to escape.)
2. Secure Lid and E-Z LOCK Cap on the Pitcher making sure Cap is in the
locked position.
3. Push the ON control button and then the RUN button.
4. Slowly increase the speed control from #1 to #8 (as specied by the recipe). Let
the machine run until desired consistency or temperature has been reached. The
average cook time is 6–8 minutes on speed #8. This will vary depending on the
texture of the ingredients and the starting temperature.
5. Do not remove Lid and E-Z LOCK Cap until the power is OFF and the unit has been
unplugged. Wait for motor to shut o and the Blades to completely stop.
6. To open Lid, rst remove the E-Z LOCK Cap to let steam escape then remove Lid.
Pureeing Cooked Soups & Sauces
1. Carefully add hot soup or sauce, avoiding splashing that could cause personal
injury. Let sit for 3–5 minutes with the E-Z Lock Cap removed, allowing the steam
to escape before blending.
Making Frozen Blends & Treats
1. To make ice cream and sorbet, add liquids and soft ingredients (i.e. soft fruits)
rst, then frozen ingredients. In order to make successful frozen treats with the
HealthMaster you must always follow the recommended ratio of ingredients.
1 part liquid to 3–4 parts frozen ingredients. Changing this ratio can damage the
Blades or the motor.
