What happens if you do not push in the pulp plug?

I forgot to do this once with mine and my juice yield was lower. The machine functioned normally, I noticed it because I am used to a consistent yield each time I juice.

I have forgotten to install the plug a couple of times, never knew that it wasn't in place until I disassembled the unit for cleaning, there is a little juice on the top of the base, but was not a big problem.

I have not tried, but holes are small, so I would say that it should not be an issue. I strain juice from my juicer(omega vrt400) to strain out some excess pulp.

It leaves alittle bit of pulp in the juice. Not much though. Yes, you should be able to add some pulp to the juice from the pulp catcher.

The pulp you have left after extracting the juice would make fine bedding material but you will have removed most of the nutrients. Peels, cores, and other discard should contribute food as it breaks down.

The only thing that comes out is the juice. Sometimes I run all the pulp and scraps back through again. You will be disappointed if you like pulp.

When it makes that "finished" hollow popping tipe gurgle turn it off and let it come to a stop. there may be a bit of water left in the base but not much. it is no problem

Run the juicer a bit longer...there will always be a bit of moisture in the pulp. Unless you want to go with the $1500 models on the market you can't avoid it.

Plug is on one of the long sides of the table and comes from underneath. There is an off button though.

I do not know scientifically, but I keep our base unplugged unless it is in use. E.g. Plug in, lift head of bed, unplug. This may not make any difference to our health, but it makes me "feel" healthier. �

Hey Meghan,some of the pulp goes into the top but not much. I do not stop and clean while I am juicing I have emptied the external collector and just continued with the juicing process..I only clean up when I am done juicing for the week.Sherrie

Although the juicer fits its mount without the strainer, as an attorney I caution you to read the booklet accompanying the product, as using the juicer without the strainer basket may invalidate the warranty. That said, it's easy enough to remove the strainer basket and dump the pulp back into the strained juice once the machine has done its work.

No, you may want to exchange it.However I always unplug it after I'm done as a safety precaution, never know what could fall into that shark tooth roller.

No, you have to pull the plug. Unfortunately most of these types of presses work this way, not sure why. Wish there was one. Still works great after all this time.

It depends how kong you juice for and how much fiber you let build up in the augers. The friction of the fibers with the augers does produce some heat. If you are juicing for a long time, say 30 min, and do not clean the augers out during this time, the pulp coming out can be warm to the touch, though not too hot to touch. This might occur more if you run the pulp back through a second time as I do to get maximum juice output. Generally the juice is cool. The main housing does get hot when running the motor. If you really want to keep things cool you can refrigerate the augers before juicing. I have not found this necessary, but it would ensure your juice stays cool.

Yes I've just checked and it's possible to remove the strainer. I've never juiced without the strainer so don't really know how it'll actually behave. You'll end up with a lot of seeds in the juice along with the pulp, I think. But removing the seeds shouldn't be too difficult, I suppose.

Wasn't aware of that. No idea. We don't unplug. Sounds like a "can't sue us" warning in the bizarre event of an electrical fire. Same warning would probably apply to any plugin electrical device.
