I'm looking for the original clutch nut WITHOUT a spring, for the Omega Fruit and Vegetable Juicer 1000. Does this have a spring?

yes but doesnt make much of a difference only allows you to push down still screws on

Yes, it does. However, it only allows you to push down until it screws on. It doesn't alter the way it juices.

I don't have much luck with kale and spinach. I am considering getting an Omega. I have had this machine for about 4 years. Any tips on juicing the greens?

I am not sure what spring is in it but this is designed as a direct OEM replacement. I am at 17.5PSI with no issue whatsoever.

Yes, the bearing is already pressed into the pulley. This was a cheap fix that worked well if your clutch has gone out. Getting the recessed snap ring back on that holds the electromagnet on was tedious bit doable. Need good pair of large snap ring pliers.

The Omega J8006 produces some foam. When I started using it I used a strainer to take off the foam but no longer do that. It juices the entire fruit/veggie. Lemon, apples ( I core my apples but my son does not)... Keep in mind you will need to cut the produce down to fit into the chute. I love my juicer!

Hi- This is a masticating juicer. I have one and I also have Omega VRT. If I had to choose one I would take the Champion.

That's a good question, I had not even thought about that. It is not listed on the juicer nor any of the paperwork. I still like this juicer even though it is not as powerful as my previous one (Juiceman), which makes it less noisy and more enjoyable while I'm working it. Would not want to give it up wherever it is made. Baerbel

Yes, I'm pretty sure that was the use for which it was originally intended, though it also does a great job with leafy greens such as kale and chard. I think all around it is the best manual juicer. The company is also very good to work with, and replaced the strainer at no charge when it developed cracks because I was juicing carrots and apples. (Did a good job on those as well, but I think the strainer basket couldn't take the extra pressure.) All in all I'm really happy with the juicer, but in a perfect world all the parts would be stainless steel.

Works and fit fine, no socket is required. Only thing I am not happy with Blade looks same as American juicers.........

I was excited when I purchased my Omega BMJ330 before Christmas in 2014.......then the motor burned out this week. Thank goodness I still have my nutri bullet for smoothies. Before this juicer I had had a Juiceman Jr. Juicer for 10 years using it quite often. The motor had been grinding and that's the reason for my new purchase. Won't be buying another BMJ330 and don't know if I'll ever buy and Omega again. Loved the stainless steel though. It juiced pretty good for a couple months. If I were you I would keep looking or don't spend alot for one. I bought mine from Amazon for 65.00. which was a deal.....not again.

Some of the older reviews mentioned one, but it looks like it does not currently. I just took a 3/16 nut driver to a belt sander and made my own.

No attachement that came with it and not good with any green leafy veggies it really just shreds them hardy any juice comes out... I returned it for the same reason and got an omega juicer instead

I am not sure I understand the question. I see no springs, but it functions well and automatically to closure, I think it is simply mechanical.

I understand the 900 has a larger feed chute and has the adjustment on the ejection port for different consistencies of veggies. Go to Omega's website, look up the two juicers and click on "add to compare" on both juicers and then open the comparison window. I have the 900 which I use about 3 times a day....it is a great juicer. I would not want a smaller feed chute. Hope this helps a little bit. I am guessing but it seems the 900 is a bit of an upgrade but is also more expensive.

Eric: it does have pulp that goes out the juice side, but this is caught in the screen if you choose to use it (it fits on top of the juice catching container. The only draw back to that is you need to rinse it often so the juice can drip through it, but its very simple. I mostly juice spinach, haven't tried much other leafy greens yet. I'm new to juicing, but do really like this machine (its very quiet). I hope this helps you out.

We recommend you contact Omega directly on this question as it appears there is conflicting information being shared. as we understand it (as learned directly from Omega), this juicer is not available in the US for sale at this time and there are no plans to bring it into the US.
