Main Unit Instructions: For 1L Juicing Jar and 600ml To Go Container The 1L Juicing Jar is open on both ends so it can be used for vacuum (and non-vacuum) processing as well as for vacuum (and non-vacuum) storage. On the other hand, the 600ml To Go Container is open on one end only so it can only be used for non-vacuum processing as well as vacuum (and non-vacuum) storage. Instructions for Vacuum (and Non-Vacuum) Processing with 1L Juicing Jar: ON 1. Place the Motor Base on a flat surface and make sure the unit is NOT plugged into the power source (Figure 1). ON 2. Attach the Juicing Jar to the Quad Blade Blending Attachment by holding it with one hand and twisting the blade attachment into place by turning it counter-clockwise.
